Best Answer

When repairing jeans or any form of denim material a heavy gauge thread is required due to the density of the material being repaired and the tension placed on the thread used because of the in-elasticity of the denim.

How do you make normal guys jeans into girls skinny jeans?

You can turn the jeans inside-out and then sew thread down the side of the leg (typically the outside of each leg). Then turn them back "outside-in" and they will be skinnier, the further inward you sew, the skinnier they will be.They do make men's skinny jeans, which aren't that hard to find anymore, Levis makes them among others.


How To Rip Jeans?

If it's a straight rip, turn jeans inside-out and sew together edges in a thread that matches the colour of the denim (this is much easier with black jeans!). Then get a patch of any material and wonder-web over the tear using an iron. Turn the jeans back the right way and cut any lose threads (the wonder-webbed patch will hold all the thread in place). Also, if they are black jeans, use a black sharpie to hide any unwanted bits (eg. patch or wonder-web showing).Hope this helps!
