    I have several pairs of 7's and diesels that are in near perfect condition other than needing repairs around knees and a couple in crotch. Anyone in Cork good at doing denim repairs? Tempted to post them to this place but prefer something local. http://www.thedenimdoctor.co.uk/

    Thanks!

    There's a guy in the Douglas Woolen Mills that fixed the ripped knee of stretchy jeans for me so well that I had to look on the inside to find the repair. Think it was a fiver per item. Had a coat as well and I still don't remember which arm was ripped.

    Probably a bit late now but it was Wisdom clothing alterations or something like that, and they're in that unit outside the Tesco Entrance above Pil Pil.

    Thank you TheChizler

    Dropped in 5 pairs of jeans today and they will be ready on Friday. They are charging €35 (€7 each) so so far so good but will let you know on Friday how it all works out.

    Thanks again.

    PS: if anyone is looking for them here is their website http://wisdomsewing.com/

    just an update but eventually picked up the repaired jeans today and they did an incredible job. Way better than I expected and just €5 per knee repair and €10 for the others. So I have five 'new' pairs of Diesel and 7's jeans for just €35 which would cost me €600+ to replace!

    Thanks TheChiizler - great recomendation here.
