Is there any reason not to let the hem out on these pants?

I got these vintage army chinos not long ago: https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1135916565183856660/1255935700805746708, and I like them a lot except that they're a little shorter than I'd prefer. There's a lot of material in the hem, so I was thinking about taking them to my tailor and having him redo it, which I think could get me another 1.5" or so. Is there some reason not to do this? I know this is done pretty routinely on suit pants, but I'm wondering if it's alright to do with cotton pants as well.
