BRISTOL 6 have just used major initiative to create a Denim D.I.Y. Kit - including pretty much everything you need to pull out those old dusty jeans and turn them into your favour-fav summer shorts.


Just in time for spring, this kit enables anyone [the skilled or skill-less], to transform their existing, lifeless, 'im-all-sitting-at-the-back-of-your-wardrobe' jeans.
