You can fix your pants hassle-free and in only around 10 minutes with this trick, you might not even want to adjust your pants any other way once you try this hack because it’s a very quick and convenient solution. Learn how now by watching the video tutorial below.
Step 1
Wear your pants and the shoes that you pair with them, then stand straight up and have someone fold under the pant cuff to the desired length, it should be long enough to cover the top of the shoe without bunching up the pant leg.
Step 2
Pin the fold to hold it in place, then carefully remove the pants, and bring it to the ironing board. Put your hand through the leg, then move the pins up the pant leg as fast as possible while still being able to pin inside the fold, and then iron the fold.
Step 3
Carefully turn the pants inside out, then remove the pins, cut the tape to size, and use pinking shears to prevent fraying at the edges. Tape the cuff, then iron it for a full minute, then keep adding tape if the fold of the cuff is wide, and do the same steps to the other pant leg. Turn it right side out and you’re done!
