I have some jeans I really love but they are boot cut and I prefer a slimmer leg now - can a tailor do this?

A good taylor - Maybe, but they would probably charge you as much as a new pair.

This. I'd just by new jeans. Bootleg over all are wider, even in the thigh. A lot of work to change.

Thanks, I didn't even think of the cost. These are designer maternity jeans from my last pregnancy so I didn't want to shell out $100+ again this time around Chat Icon

I would just wear them how they are. Flares are back. Throw them on with some comfy converse & good to go.

No it wouldn't come out right. The seams would never sit straight or even look like the factory edge with the yellow thread. Chat Icon

Yes it wouldn't look right and woudl cost more than they would be worth.
Boot cut is more flattering IMO anyway. Chat Icon
