I need to find a local dry cleaner service that will "fix" wallet imprints on jeans.

My mistake to not check the fabric before stuffing the wallet into back pocket.  Now it has a butt-ugly wallet imprint on it after only 2 days.  Yes, it bothers me.

Back in early 1990's I used to go to this guy in Buena Park who ran a dry cleaner service plus shoe & leather repair.  He'd spot dye jeans/fabric, leather, and purses to fix ugly worn areas.  But he's long gone and I need to find a new shop.  :(

Can you make a matching imprint on the other back pocket?  Maybe it can be a new fashion trend you can get rich off of. ;)
 
I don't remember the last time I put my wallet in my back pocket... maybe in high school when I owned a water proof "ripper" wallet.

I suggest either trying to dye the pocket yourself or just asking the dry cleaner you currently use.
 
bahahaha I was watching a show the other day where they showed you how to make a pair of regular jeans look like DESIGNER jeans by scuffing them up - one of the things you were supposed to do was put an old wallet in the pocket and like, rub some find sand paperaround the edge of it to give it a fake 'worn old wallet imprint'.

Why don't you want to look cool momopi?
 
that would be dangerous because the new iphones would come out, and the shape would change again and then you'd be like "ohhh I have to get this repaired so I can re-imprint the NEW shape on it"  the slim leather bifold or trifold is forever.  I wonder if you have to use a wallet that matches the imprint though? MAybe when you buy your 300 dollar true religion jeans you can choose from options like that.
