As a tailor I have to disagree with his claim that you can't achieve the same effect with a standard sewing machine. You absolutely can, dexterity, thread matching and everything. It takes longer but in no way is it impossible.
It's also not at all impossible with a needle and thread, I just don't put that much time into darning jeans and I don't tend to use modern thread or modern needles most of the time so the repairs tend to be rather obvious. If you want faster repairs that might be very visible, yarn works well enough if you have needles that can accommodate it.

You'll get the same effect even without a patch on the back?

Holy cow! That is beautiful work. Really beautiful.
Darn good video Nick. Super informative....thanks 🙂
That was really interesting Nick…darning is really an art. Thanks.
Just got a pair of repaired jeans back from Soldier Blue, they have done a fantastic job.
This was a great video thank you very much
Always appreciate you stopping by, Augustine pseudonym!
👍🏻Great content!
I recommend Science and Kindness in the Twin Cities for darning. It’s not inexpensive, but it’s far more durable than other options I’ve tried.
what are the boots at 2:05
Amazing how you can't even tell where the darning took place. Thread companies need to make a specific color called "crotch fade blue".
hahah perfect
2:46 🤨🤨🤨
I see a new video, I click.
I wish they were all like you, King!
Can you tell me which room you bought and where?
Best way to fix jeans with holes is to sell them to someone who wants jeans with holes in’em. Love your videos 🤗
the algorithm doesn't like your videos for my feet I guess I didn't know you had all these new videos out until like yesterday
That sucks! Hit the bell, I guess? Notification bell? Thanks for going hunting for other videos Johnny!
So the real trick is to find someone even half as competent as this to fix your jeans!
Is my man wearing a pair of red wing roughnecks? The people need to know
My jeans had holes when I bought them. I think I was duped.
I don’t give a darn about this video!
aw but mike!
Too much trouble. Just buy a new one,….
