I had a pair of trousers altered and mended at Threads and the work was excellent. For £17, the old sad elastic was replaced, a small rip on the knee sewn up, and snaps added to help secure the waistband. The work included a free fitting at Threads' location in Hackney Wick.
After the fitting (when I dropped off the item), the job was done the next day. I was able to pick up the trousers from a drop box at Refill Therapy on Wallis Road. Payment was super easy, via invoice on Monzo. Other forms of payment are accepted too. Services are by appointment only.
The whole experience was friendly and smooth. I totally recommend this service for mending and alteration. While I have no experience with Threads' bespoke design, I'm sure that's great too. Reduce, reuse, upcycle. Keep it local. Go Threads! read more
