Levi's Super Baggy Hem Advice?
I thrifted these Super Baggy Levi's in a 34x34, and I'm closer to a 34x29. I kind of like the stacking though, so if I get them hemmed, how much should I take off to leave some stacking but not too much?
I also noticed they seem to have a slight taper toward the opening to keep them from dragging. Should I ask my tailor to attempt to replicate this, or does that run the risk of them going in the direction of a traditional tapered cut and ruining the baggy shape?

get it hemmed normally to a 31"
theyll also pin it for u and show how the length looks
yeah when its pinned feel it out, also remember its annoying and costs money but you can always take more off.
@awz pp @oman121 thanks, I guess my real concern is if I go higher up where the opening is going to be wider and I keep much more length than a full break, isn't it going to drag, especially in less chunky shoes than these?
you can have them do a non straight hem where the back is a bit higher, ask your tailor about options
so if I use an angled hem to avoid dragging on the lowest shoes I have (probably boat shoes or similar), will it look weird on thicker soled shoes or if I wear the jeans pulled up closer to my natural waist and there is less break?
IMO hemmed like right off the ground in the back still leaves a decent amount of break, but also some heel buy looks cool on jeans to me
