DIY: How to Shred and add Chains Your Jeans




The Inspiration is Alexander Wang’s shredded chain jeans.

First you’ll need to get ready: Jeans cut to desired length, craft knife or Xacto scalpel, Jewellery precision pliers, chains of different width,  Eyelet set  (Pliers, eyelets)

(This is optional, you could shred the bottom of your jeans – or like Wang’s it could be left as it is. Since I cut my long jeans anyway, I shredded the bottom.)
Use the craft blade to slice a section, then scrape down. Putting a cutting board under the jeans helps.

Make some shredded holes further up.

Make a series of eyelet holes near the shredded holes for chains to pass through.

Pass chains through eyelets and hook. Repeat few more times and the same for other leg.
