    It's called wonder web, Tesco sells it. You have to take in account before shortening jeans the hem for the wonder web. You then iron flat the hem , then insert the wonder wed under the hem. After the webbing is covered by the hem you iron the hem and the webbing will bond the material. It.s best then to stitch the seam just on the seam of the jeans, not the whole of the alteration if you are no good with needle and cotton.The webbing will stand a few washes with this method . The mend should be invisible afterward
