Thought there are many tutorials out there on this it is impossible to recreate. First, you can't get the same wear on the new seam as the origional the manufactor made. Second, the grain lines are off and you end up with a seam that runs down the front of your leg. It may save you some $$$ but the end product is not that good.

For me, there is no such beast as skinny jeans!

Great tutorial, though!
