$26 for a crew taken in
$29 for a zip up crew w/liner taken in

Expensive but worth it, you could probably find a cheaper place I just got it done at the first place/closest place I came across.

good to know!

sounds like ribbing will be a little tighter for next year, so it may not be necessary!

I hope to god the ribbing is tighter when the new stuff comes around. They should make the ribbing like they did on the Bird/Allen/Banks, ribbing tightness is perfect on those.

The ribbing isn't for you, it's for her.

going to re bump this thread from a while ago, but what did you ask the tailor to do to the ribbing? I have a nerd and a crew that i want the ripping to be taken in, but dont really know what to tell the tailor to do or if they will know what to do?
