All I want it for is to hem pants, mostly jeans. Does it work well on these?

I have only used this machine on lightweight cottons so far. You may have to adjust the tension if your jeans are very heavy.

Yes. My wife used it to hem a pair of blue jean shorts last summer and it has held fast up to this point.

I don't think there will be a problem. We ironed to our sons jeans to replicate Fireman's pants, and it flexed well. (It did not stick all that well, however).

Probably.... but the pants have a drawstring to tighten. You could make it work. I would prob go a size smaller. They are pretty long already.

Have not used them on denim, but have used them on some heavy fabrics and they work amazing. Hope this helps.

I bought a size smaller than I usually wear because of the reviews saying they ran big. Mine fit like a glove, so I can't wear them comfortably over jeans. I would guess that if you bought them in your normal size, wearing them over snug jeans would work fine.

Yes! Check out the customer image someone posted. It is of this item being used for just your purpose! Smile. Thanks for inspiring, I'll be buying 2 now lol... One for pants of course. ; )

No not really. I found that it was ok for shirts or anything smaller. I still had to do a weekly pants/jeans wash.

I think a lot has to do how one is built and how the pants are made. In my case I normally wear a women's 24 in jeans. I have tried on jeans that are too tight and say 24. I have a bigger rear end, smaller waist, and my legs are smaller compared to the rest of me (that changes without notice!). They fit me pretty good in the legs but they wouldn't snap due to the top part being smaller on me. They are not hemed and I wish they had been, I hate hemming pants but one does what one must. I hope this helps and good luck to you.

I ironed on my workout pants that are 88% polyester and 22% spandex. No problems!!

I think it would work if it's only clothes but it will be tight if it's bigger heavier items like pair of jeans. If you put shoes in the pocket though that will invade some of your clothing space. Hope this helps

I have hemmed light-weight denim with it. I wouldn't be afraid to hem regular jeans with it, but I would use a denim needle and a longer stitch, go very slowly, and put something under the back of the presser foot when you come to the seams so that it sits flat and stresses the needle less. They sell a little tool for that, but I've seen tutorials where they just roll up fabric.

I have not tried shirts and pants but think it would be difficult. Works best for sheets and other flat items.

Could be used for jeans but only 5 pair, but I wouldn't recommend it because that's a lotta weight unless you have good strong bars in your closet. And if you have a lot of jeans then you really need to think about it

Unless the jeans are exceptionally tight, yes, it will. It certainly fits under regular slacks.

yes I do! but you have to make sure you use a denim needle and it should be a new needle---replaced everytime you have a denim job to do. a big part of the reason I bought it was to hem my jeans.... hope this helps!!

No, they are good to wear over a base layer that is thin yet Insulating. Jeans would be too bulky and too much for the waist unless you go up a size.
