Hello everyone, my brother-in-law has a pair of designer jeans that have the shredded look…you know they look like the fabric is raveling…does anyone know how to do that to a pair of jeans. He wants me to shred a pair for him?
Happy sewing!

Most people just use a razor blade at the knees, etc. wherever you want the tears, & just let them ravel away - a few washes helps that along - just don't put the cuts too close together or you'll have a large hole instead of the slashes.
It still boggles my mind why people will pay good money to buy these used-looking jeans (& some are VERY expensive). A better place to get them is a thrift shop, then cut them yourself.

Dressed;Sandpaper is also a good way to give damage, wearmarks, and fade spots to new jeans.T.
Shotgun?
Dremel tool?
