I got these pants from Calvin Klein in September, and just wore a few times, normal wear and tear, and this happened.

After going through the refund process, I have a CK credit of $40 to buy some new ones. However, I am wondering if it would be worth it to take these to a tailor and net the difference. Fixing/replacing a seam does not seem like a hard job.

For reference, the tailor near me did a pants hem on some brown pants, and a waist bringing-in on these pants, each for $25. So I don't know how much this seam fix could cost.

Of course, another reason to keep these pants is that I did already invest that $25 in the waist. I did ask CK for a credit on that part, but they did not give it to me.

(And $40 is fair for at least the pants and shipping--I got them on big Labor Day sale.)
