Yours is far the best distressed jeans video I've seen. The outcome is really nice.

[@elevatedike]

Thank you. I hope yours turns out well.

[@1rxmi]

i rubbed my knee into an skate griptape and it distressed it quite well

[@cptnchristMyth]

Yeah I use a foam sanding block. You can put creases folds into the jeans eans and and then send the edges of the creases

[@wahyuahmedrasheed8091]

And your knee got distressed as well right?🤣

[@alexgilmore6638]

@@wahyuahmedrasheed8091 yes actually because like a idiot I did it to but I had it on my leg

[@prod.schemeteam203]

Cause that’s how people used to distress their jeans before it became a trend

[@luism8976]

xx_ anxiety_xx did they turn out good

[@SEMTEXS]

can’t wait to spend 7$ on thrifted jeans and bring em back to life

[@301edgar4]

[@elevatedike]

+Michael Carnero Definitely do it man

[@bj2280ms]

[@MichaelCarnero]

Bilal Jaden Nah man. Distressed the knees and gave it raw hems, it was pretty easy and looks dope. And I'm not a DIY kinda guy at all. If you're thinking about it, go for it!

[@lindagillespie6556]

Best ever tutorial thank you kindly

[@DonnyDon90]

About to attempt this now. I'm going to test an old pair of jeans first so I don't completely screw it up! You're the first guy I've seen do it and the first person to mention the knee cap not being a box! lol I feel more comfortable using your method!
Wish me luck !

[@elevatedike]

+Dante Bradley Did you try it, how did your jeans come out?

[@DonnyDon90]

Elevated Ike I did! They came out great! I tried it on an older pair of jeans that didn't fit right, so it looked off. I then tried it on some fitted tailored slims and it turned out great!
I did have to rewind and pause your video a couple times to get the method down but I did nonetheless lol. Thanks!!

[@elevatedike]

Great man. Glad this helped

[@masakhaneconstruction3752]

[@carterloveland]

When patching, you could also use an iron on patch if you don't have a sewing machine. Just a little trick.

[@LarryByrdMusic]

You should try Tear Mender

[@JaceLansing]

This blew my mind. Great work.

[@elevatedike]

Best denim distressing vid 🔥🔥🔥

[@elevatedike]

Andrew Ortiz THANKS! Hoped it helped you man

[@yesyes3198]

aye bro in place of the seam ripper you could use like the pencil right? just anything with a point?

[@elevatedike]

The seam ripper actually has a blade so it can cut through the threads. You're better off using a razor blade.
Seam rippers are inexpensive though.

[@oliboi4488]

I just used a damn thumb tack and got great results
