Description
Meet the Flâneur Pants, a wide-leg, mid-rise pant for all your adventures—perfect for both strolling through the countryside and exploring a new city. The Flâneurs feature a zip fly with a flat front and elasticated back. They do not have a side seam, making them easier to cut and sew, as well as ideal for sewing with prints. Store your treasures in patch pockets on the side and back. The fit is comfortable and flexible—size up for a relaxed, slightly oversized pant or size down for a more fitted silhouette.
Flâneur is a French term that was popularized in the 19th century to describe someone who wanders for enjoyment, typically in an urban setting—a person who saunters about town observing and exploring without a specific purpose.
Recommended Fabrics
The Flâneur Pants are designed for mid- to heavy-weight woven fabrics. For a structured, workwear-inspired look, use cotton canvas, denim, or twill. For a lighter, flowier feel, opt for a 6–8 oz linen, suiting, or rayon twill.
Notions
• 1 x ¾" (1.9 cm) button
• 1 x size #7/8 zipper for fly (6–8" / 15–20 cm long)
• ¾ yd (0.7 m) of 1.5" (3.8 cm) wide elastic
• Matching thread
• ⅛ yd (0.1 m) of fusible interfacing
• Zipper foot for sewing machine
• Optional: Topstitching thread (used on fly, pockets, waistband, and hem)
