Aww Kendrick thank you so much! To be fair to RUclips... My life is so busy I rarely get breathing space to make more videos but it's always in the back of my mind... maybe one day I'll be able to throw myself at this full time!
I can't believe how concise and understandable these videos are. Well done, you've really helped me overcome a lot of my worries about getting started!
That's awesome Nick! I do find that alot of pattern making is kinda... overly confusing and once you understand the mechanics... it just doesn't have to be! Hope you make something you'll wear with it!
I cannot believe how good this tutorial is. I used it to make my son pants and they fit perfectly using your method! I'm sooo pleased! You have quickly become my go to RUclipsr for all things 'mens patterns'. It was a bit fiddly making the waist band (that I haven't sewn on yet) because I had to watch several other tutorials. Perhaps you can do a tutorial for the waistband pattern? Other than that, loved it!
Aww Betty this is such a nice comment! I wish I was able to dedicate more time to creating things here. I do think the boys need a bit of attention in this space! I've made a little note in my to do list on your waistband... thanks for watching my friend
Love your stuff. I'm experienced with women's wear, now all my sons want trousers and I like your videos the best. Therefore some cotton twill and I are staring back at each other.
"Meat walls" lol. I love it. ❤️ I'm trying to teach myself how to draft trousers. Since I am a woman, I do need more curve. From the videos that I've been watching 👀 there isn't too much difference. The biggest change is the curves. There is a larger hip to waist ratio in women. I still learned something.
It won’t get more views because the video is very hard to watch… The pattern is shown about 20% of the time… Other 80% is OP batting his lashes for some reason… You have to screenmunch the video to make sense of it… I made the pants tho and they were nice
So I tried it. I have made the pattern. I’ve cut my pieces. I sewed. the thing is that the back panel is very steep. It creates a triangle on the center back. Also the crotch line needs to be a little bit deeper with the curve I mean because it’s very tight for the men area . But over all , clean and professional guidance .
Great video, thank you. Can you give a measurement range for "a little ease?" A second video on how to go from this step to making a jeans pattern, or just any tips on adapting this for jeans would be so amazing. Thanks!!
I just found your channel…Awesome “shit”. Production is cool, catchy storyline, charming host. I just subscribed (and binge watched your videos). Looking fwd 4 more :)
What if I have a flat bum so how do I do the waist front and back extension where you go up a centimeter or so for the back and then for the front you go down a centimeter or two?
I kno wI'm late to the party, but I'm really enjoying your pattrn making videos!!! How do you determine where to start the last two curves you drew on the back panel? I imagine that you pattern the smaller one off of the crotch, but I feel like I would need another reference point to properly draw the larger (top) curve coming down from the waist.
Hi great video but what do you mean with a little ease? How much do you use, would like 1cm be a wise amount for 'a little ease'?. I just disregarded the ease cause im quite sticklike but i ran into the waist of the front panel being exactly on the outseam line, so there is no space to curve out to the hip.
any suggestions for adjusting to make pants for a person who has a rather larger than usual bum & hips, to make them look less apparent? store bought pants tend to fit either my hips or my leg but never both so I'm wanting to make pants that fit my body shape
Oooh great question J Smith! So what I would do is consider your body as one shape when taking measurements. So wherever your hips, dips and bumps come... include them in your measurements instead of trying to find the 'traditional' line of measurement. And then think of the context... if you want to lessen the hips... perhaps there is a styling choice that goes WITH the pants... such as a jacket with wider shoulders so that the proportions aren't as hip focused? Does that make sense?
The "Straddling" you talked about is to find your Crotch length. I'm definitely going to try this method of dividing the crotch length in half and see what it makes. And yeah, the crotch is the soul of the pants. Nice tutorials. 🥰👏🏽
Just what I was after, clear and simple. Before I get into drawing out does your drawings include any seam allowance or should I add my preferred seam allowance?
No I don't account for seam allowance... You can be as liberal or as tight as your sewing skills allow when making your own patterns. In fact I've taken to marking my seam lines when constructing instead of having to remember how much seam allowance I've allowed. Just ensure your measurements are correct based on your fabric and how you want the fit ✨
@@BeauWilder thanks for coming back so quick, that makes a lot of sense. For some reason arms on patterns always require a lot of adjustment for me, looking forward to using your videos to get a better fit first time in future. Your video style is so much better than I have seen before in sewing video’s, much more how I think.
@@JonathanDowe Bahh you're so kind! I do plan to make more however life keeps smacking me down. I agree with you though... it's time to make patterning more accessible!
Great content… Questionable delivery… The video would be better if it showed the pattern more and showed OP’s face less… It’s a tough watch but it’s worth it

Most time I get hard time making male trouser block but now am good to go ,thanks
Bahh I'm so glad... You'll need to show me somehow how you get on... I'll need to start a Facebook page or something!
@@BeauWilder I will definitely and Facebook page is really good idea.hope u can start soon
Great tutorial. Love your style of presentation. Thank you!
You are very welcome Kenneth. I hope it encourages your craft further 😇
not pants related, but i love your purple monster socks in the begining
Ha ha ha thanks! I have them in a few colours I think... if socks don't have eyes, then I don't wanna know about them 😂

Thank you. You are creative and I wish you success. I would like to know whether to add room for sewing to this pattern or not

Thank you🙏❤️😊 I really love the explanations, keep up because it's so clear and everyone needs this.
And just one thing, what about the waist band measurement ?🙂?
Hey, new to your videos. These have been so helpful!
I think the “straddle” measurement you mentioned is called the “rise.” Hope that helps.
HI Beau have you ever hand made a mens suit with embroidery embellishment?!✈️
So I tried it. I have made the pattern. I’ve cut my pieces. I sewed. the thing is that the back panel is very steep. It creates a triangle on the center back. Also the crotch line needs to be a little bit deeper with the curve I mean because it’s very tight for the men area . But over all , clean and professional guidance .
What book would you recommend that covers this?
Can I used this pattern to cut combat trouser pattern... .?
Great video, thank you. Can you give a measurement range for "a little ease?" A second video on how to go from this step to making a jeans pattern, or just any tips on adapting this for jeans would be so amazing. Thanks!!
i second this! ive been using 1 cm ease but seems a bit small?

From the belly button to the back waist measurement is called the CROTCH LENGH

definitely subscribing to this Scot(?). Yeah, very informative.

I just disregarded the ease cause im quite sticklike but i ran into the waist of the front panel being exactly on the outseam line, so there is no space to curve out to the hip.
Why not just measure from the ankle to the middle of the knees and get an accurate length, rather than relying on averaged additions/subtractions?

After 1/4 of the waist you say add ease. Which I understand that. BUT WHAT IS THE 1 CM FOR???
Or do you know of anyone with these dexterous skills crochet a Mens designer suit?!✈️

so like, measuring at the widest point and using that measurement..? I think I get it I will try that, thank you!

Thanks Chinonso... Its not glamorous but... a straddle keeps me sane before I cut ha ha ha
@@BeauWilder you're so funny. 😅
