Heh I repaired a pair of $15 jeans 👖 just last fall.

They fit so.... (I’m cheap)

Don’t rely on my sewing skills, LOL 🤣.

BUT strong enough to go through several washes already.

Of course under Joe Biden those jeans 👖👖👖 may cost $18,000 now.

😜

I used double iron-on patches (either side) and over-sewed extensively (had the time, friend gave me a strong needle, I bought jeans 👖 thread for about $2.75 at WalMart and a 25-year-old girl gave me some additional tips)

Oh and I had leftover iron-on jean patches

I wear cotton twill cargo pants instead of jeans.
