"Now we will be pressing the leg of the pants so what we do here is we put the leg down and these pants have a permanent crease in them so we try to match up the crease, we don't double crease pants because that looks really horrible. We have a vacuum that holds the pants down so we can get the crease in there nice and tight. Make sure the cuff is equal all the way around and then we will pull this up but right now what I am doing is pushing steam to it with the vacuum on and we are going to lift the vacuum up and you have a nice pressed leg there and so we bring this one back and we are going to flip it over and do the other one. What we are doing again is we are just making the creases perfect as double creases are our enemy, bring it back, do the leg, bring the other leg over and then we take a hanger, bring it down on the pants. Now we have the pants and we look around and it is kind of a little funky right here so we are going to take our iron that blows out pure steam and just steam in that area and that is a completed pair of pants.
