Perfect timing! I was just thinking this

Yet another unique, concise and helpful video from the Modest Man. I always appreciate the content you post. Thank you!

My attempts at making cuffs always end up being sloppy, and eventual undo themselves. You'd think someone would come up with some like plastic or metal 'invisible' cuff stay.

Also Brock, the Pin Roll was VERY Popular in 1989 Brooklyn for Z. Cavaricci Pants 😀
Thanks for the Video.

Didn’t know it’s called Japanese cuff until now, which happened to be my favorite style on my selvedge jeans. Thanks.

Back in the 80s, we “pegged’ our jeans which is essentially what you refer to as pin rolling. We also did this weird thing with numerous safety pins to narrow the silhouette of our jeans.

The old "tight roll" as we called it in the 80s. Nice video.

Cuffing makes more sense if your tailor cannot preserve original hem ... Good Work Man ...

Amazing video! I only knew two ways. The japanese cuff looks cool!

[strider]

Fantastic video, definitely going to start using the Japanese Cuff for some 32 inseam selvedge denim I have (I'm 5'6 as well)

I've gotta ask where are those trousers from, the first pair shown for "Permanent Cuff" at 1:55? Thanks in advance

Needed to take 6 inches off my jeans, the Japanese cuff works! Thanks Brock!

Off that back of this video/thumbnail, could you show us the correct cuffing protocol for our jeans/pants please? I'm never sure if I cuff to much or to little or if I'm even doing it right when I do it. Thanks 👍

I am ready for some "Roll Up Action" here !

Thanks a lot for the idea. Really wanted some tips to cuff my pants

[stefanlee]

Feeling those socks in Tip 2, minimal but also fun.

[inch_monster]

pro tip, for a cleaner inside cuff, iron those cuffs before wearing them. and i had no idea it's called japanese cuff as ive been doing it for years

[ryanstellmaker]

I love every time this man says “ Trousers “ ❤❤❤

[tlazarovitz]

My main issue with cuffing my jeans (I guess I do the double cuff) is that the cuff grows wider throughout the day. Total pet peeve of mine!

What brand is that selvedge denim you are wearing? Love that Japanese cuff! Great content!🙌
