    Coe Trouser

    $33.50$39.50

    The Coe is sculptural but not stiff, relaxed but not sloppy, just undeniably cool in that “I bought these at a store you haven’t heard of” kind of way. It’s high waisted with a side seam that wraps slightly forward, giving the leg its unique shape. They go with everything because they are everything. The main character in an otherwise quiet outfit and the reason you’ll finally stop buying pants you secretly hate.

    Features:

    • High rise, top of waistband should sit at the natural waist
    • On seam front pockets
    • Forward twisted side seam
    • Hem finishes below the ankle
    • Zip fly closure

    Our patterns come in PDF format for use at home, copy shop or projecting with both size ranges included. The DD range comes in sizes 0 – 20 and the JJ range comes in sizes 16 – 34.

    Gabby is wearing a size 16 from the JJ size range in 11oz Denim. Her measurements are: 42″/36″/45″ at 5’8″.

    Malak is wearing a size 4 from the DD size range in a 12 oz Denim. Her measurements are; 34″/26″/37″ at 5’8″.

    Adams Pant

    $33.50$42.50

    The Adams are the pant you throw on when you don’t know what the day holds. Our take on the classic painter pant, they’re relaxed with an easy fit and just the right amount of structure. The large front pockets can handle your keys, phone and wallet leaving the darted back pockets open for whatever else you may need to carry. Choose between a zipper or buttons for the front fly closure. If you can’t decide between them you may just need to make two pairs, one with each option. These can easily be sized down for a closer fit or add a tab and buckle at the back waist.

    Features:

    • Higher mid rise, top of waistband should sit 1″ to 1 1/2″ below natural waist
    • Five pocket styling
    • Slight cropped hem
    • Choice of button or zip fly closure
    • Darted back pockets

    Our patterns come in PDF format for use at home, copy shop or projecting with both size ranges included. The DD range comes in sizes 0 – 20 and the JJ range comes in sizes 16 – 34.

    Racer Vest

    $30.00$33.00

    The Racer Vest is a jersey pattern that’s designed to feel like a second skin. The high neck and narrow shoulder gives the piece a sporty feel and the low scoop under the arms gives you the breathing space to avoid sweaty, tight underarms.

    It’s an everyday piece that’s fun to make with the binding finishing giving you a chance to play with contrast colours. The making process is simple without cutting corners so it’s a great piece for beginners or anyone looking to make a modern wardrobe staple.
