How to Shorten AND Taper Your Pants (Using the Pinroll Cuff)

About this video

McGoff teaches the pinroll technique, a method for cuffing pants that simultaneously shortens and tapers them. He demonstrates the step-by-step process for both legs, emphasizing how to pinch excess fabric at the inseam, create even cuffs, and troubleshoot common issues to achieve a polished final result.

Key takeaways

  • McGoff argues the pinroll solves two problems at once—pants that are too long and too wide at the leg opening
  • McGoff recommends pinching excess fabric at the inseam, folding it toward the heel, then creating two cuffs while keeping the pinched section tight
  • McGoff suggests matching the pinroll on both legs as closely as possible and using your fingers to smooth out any pulling, twisting, or bunching
