Repairs & Modifications

My grey 64 seemed to have much longer arms than my black 64. So much so that I wasn't wearing it much.
So took the plunge and got them shortened
Pretty pleased with the result

looks great! I wouldn't even has guessed anything had been done!

On a recent trip to Paris, I had my Beatle Busters repaired at http://www.repairjeans.com. Georges has been in business for over 40 years and with my few words of french we even managed to communicate a bit
It took him only 2 hours to reinforce the cuffs, knee and front pockets with stitches and to patch + reinforce the crotch that started to wear out. I think he did an amazing job for a very reasonable price.

I have a this seasons Levis Barstow flannel shirt that I got for £10 new, because one of the pocket button clips does does not work.
The clip has three parts
1. A male clip on the pocket
2. A female-male clip which covers 1.
3. A female clip on the pocket flapThe problem is that 1 and 2 do not clip together. Any ideas how to get these clipped together. Do I need a special tool for this.
-
Pictures would help.
-
Yeah, sorry. In the image below. The clip in the middle, with gripper written on it is supposed to cover the clip below it.

I've been after a long bodied overdyed type III such as SExIH07BKIII [Long] but there just dont seem to be any around. So after winning the Sample Iron Heart 14oz indigo selvedge denim modified type III AUCTION I decided to do it myself. Result -
Awesome job @den1mhead

@spitfiredealer I used dylon purchased from supermarket.
Pop item in machine on a 40 degree's C wash then dry away from direct heat and sunlight.
I skip the step to wash the item after dying.

@den1mhead nice cheers mate. Thinking of doing one of my henley's. But want to do it indigo

I think I´ll dye a white loopwheel tee, could look nice because the white threads should stay white because they are polycotton (I think…) @Giles Is that correct?
