The Sometimes, Always, Never 3-Button Rule
it’s sometimes appropriate to have the top button buttoned along with the middle one (a stylistic decision — if the lapel is flat, it can look good to button it; if the lapel rolls over and hides the top button, only button the middle one), it’s always appropriate to have the middle button buttoned (the middle button pulls the jacket together at your natural waist and lets the bottom naturally flare out around your hips), and you should never button the last button (doing so messes up the intended tailoring and flare offered by the middle button).

After 3 weeks of waiting, I finally got my jeans back from Denim Therapy. Here are my thoughts:
I dropped off a pair of selvedge denim at Denim Therapy and they charged me $40 for it. I figured, why not, they must do something special, or something really well.
They also wanted $40 for tapering my Levi’s 501 and random Gap jeans, I said no on those and took the Levi’s and Gap to the dry cleaner across the street. They pinned me exactly the same as Denim Therapy but charged me $15 each and promised to have it done in 2 days. I picked it up 2 days later and they came out perfect. Exactly what I asked for.
Denim Therapy also did a stellar job. Probably the same as the dry cleaner who tapered the jeans from the inseam, even though the jeans weren’t selvedged.
Moral of the story? Don’t throw down $40 and wait 3 weeks for a taper when you can get it done at a dry cleaner for less than half the price, and in 48 hours.
