Thread: How do i make denim shorts from an old pair of jeans?

Just cut them with a scissor at the desired length.

I'd try a heavy starch then press

Cut the legs of the jeans off -- duh!

For me, the simplest and cheapest way is to just cut them with a good pair of scissors at whatever length you want.

cut them??

Depends on the style you want. You can just cut them off to the length you need and they'll eventually fray after you wash them a couple times. Or you can cut them off and fold the bottom, sew them, and create a hem. (Frayed)Cut offs are back in style, so I would just do it that, its much easier.
