These shorts would be a perfect addition to it :-)<br />I would love to make them in a solid navy blue or forest green but add a lot of beautiful details like bias seam binding in a light brown contrast fabric, a patterned pocket fabric, beautiful buttons, ... I love adding beautiful details to a garment.<br />I also recently saw some in-seam-pockets that closed with a button and a piece of ribbon/band (instead of a buttonhole). <br /><br />Another thing I would definitely do is to adjust the size of the back pockets to the measurements of my boyfriend's wallet. It is something Thread Theory suggested in their blog post (here: https://threadtheoryblog.wordpress.com/2013/04/05/what-makes-menswear-interesting-to-sew/) and I love the idea!Aennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16550139247645788516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-85461667166729483572013-08-09T13:36:58.406-07:002013-08-09T13:36:58.406-07:00My bf is constantly bugging me to make him somethi...My bf is constantly bugging me to make him something.

My husband started work at a new job and he needs new clothes really badly...he has a hard time finding pants in stores that fit him perfectly too (just like me! Weird!). Your version looks really great in denim! He seems to enjoy them, haha :) I'd love to join in sewing the shorts version next week, but besides that, I'll be making office-appropriate pants in whatever fabric my husband picks out, so that could be interesting!

In the big 4 there are very few patterns if you compare with women´s patterns and with Burda magazine they are rare birds. I just finished another pair of shorts for my husband, but I´m not really happy with the pattern, althought he is delighted with them. Good fit but very little details. I would love to try these!Merche Martinezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05661826143945463474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6813031881624424068.post-43870265034874901402013-08-06T23:51:54.945-07:002013-08-06T23:51:54.945-07:00They turned out sooooo well!
