In the heart of Tampere, Finland — where history meets modern creativity — denim gets a second chance.

Tampere, often called the 'Manchester of Finland,' is a city built on resilience. From its industrial roots, where red-brick factories once fueled Finland’s economy, to today’s thriving cultural scene, it’s a place that values hard work and craftsmanship. It’s fitting, then, that Inch Store — a cornerstone of Tampere’s streetwear scene — carries that same spirit into every denim repair they make.

Inch Store isn’t just a shop; it’s a Nudie Jeans Repair Partner, dedicated to keeping your favorite jeans alive. Rather than tossing worn-out denim, they breathe new life into each pair — reinforcing seams, patching holes, and ensuring your jeans last as long as possible.

Inch have curated their own Re-use drop, available now on inchstore.com

Meet Jerry — the heart of the repairs

At the core of Inch Store’s repair service is Jerry. His denim journey started in his youth, drawn to tight black drainpipe jeans. Over time, he fell for the raw, rugged charm of dry selvage denim — and the craft of repairing it. Now, Jerry leads the charge at Inch Store, bringing worn-out jeans back from the brink with skill and passion.

For Jerry and Inch Store, every rip, tear, and faded knee tells a story worth saving. Each repair adds character — a new chapter in the life of the jeans. It’s not about making denim look new again. It’s about honoring the wear, the adventures, and the memories woven into the fabric.

Why repair matters
Fast fashion has led to a throwaway culture. But Inch Store and Nudie Jeans stand for something different: longevity. By repairing jeans instead of replacing them, we’re cutting down on textile waste, saving water, and reducing environmental impact. It’s a small step with a big impact — and it looks damn good, too.

When you walk into Inch Store, you’re not just getting a patch-up job. You’re joining a movement — one that values sustainability, craftsmanship, and authenticity. A repaired pair of jeans isn’t broken. It’s reborn.

Keep good denim alive
Whether you’re a lifelong denim head or someone who just loves a good pair of jeans, Inch Store in Tampere is where your worn-in Nudie Jeans get a second wind. Come in for a repair — or just to share your denim story with Jerry and the team. Because great jeans should never go to waste. And neither should the stories they carry.
