Configurator and variants

Make sure you select your variants in the configurator in order, i.e. from left to right or from top to bottom.
The display may vary depending on the device.
If you go back, check the settings you have already made again.
You will find a general explanation for each option.
There are also individual variants to choose from, which contain individual descriptions.
Finally, you can enter your body measurements or select a clothing size.
How to take your measurements is explained during the measurement process.
However, you can also take a look at our measuring instructions here.
It is important that you take your measurements very carefully, because the correct measurements are the basis for the right cut.

Overview of the different variants

You can also find the following descriptions directly in the configurator.
This will give you an overview: For baggy jeans, you first select the leg shape.
In the next step, you determine the width of your trousers by selecting the fit.
There are four different leg shapes to choose from.
The straight leg shape runs roughly straight from the knee to the hem and therefore has a wider hem width than the tapered leg shape.
The tapered leg shape (carrot shape) tapers towards the hem.
They are slightly tapered at the knee.
With the slightly flared leg shape, the hem width is approx. 6 cm wider all around than at the thigh with normal trouser length, with the flared leg shape it is 12 cm more.
For the fit, you can choose between the three variations described below, all of which are designed for non-elastic material.
However, you can also use a slightly stretchy material, but then have to ensure that the waistband does not stretch out by fixing it with an inelastic interfacing or cutting it lengthwise.
The normal-width shape is cut loosely at the seat and upper thighs.
It has a width allowance of approx. 8 cm at the seat.
The loose fit is cut very loosely at the seat and upper thighs.
There is an allowance of approx. 14 cm at the back.
The extra casual wide shape is cut extremely loose at the seat and upper thighs.
They are approx. 20 cm wider at the back.
The choice of waistband height is only a pre-selection for the made-to-measure patterns.
You only determine the actual height of the waistband when you enter the measurements.
For example, if you select the low waistband height here, but enter the measurement for the “side length to the top edge of the waistband” so high that it corresponds to a medium waistband height, you will get the medium waistband height.
There are also three options for the crotch depth .
In the normal shape, the crotch is deepened by around 9% of the inner leg length.
With the high rise, the crotch is approx. 14% of the inner leg length.
The extra deep indentation is approx. 19% of the inner leg length.
In terms of length, you can choose between the normal and extra-long version.
You also have three options when choosing the front pockets.
Here you can choose the classic round pocket shape with a coin pocket, the same pocket from the front yoke or a square wing pocket.
For the back pockets, you can choose between a square or round patch pocket.
The pattern includes templates for optional decorative stitching.
You can choose between a 40 mm or 60 mm wide waistband.
It is also available as a shaped or straight waistband. In contrast to the straight waistband, the shaped waistband is slightly slanted towards the center front.
This makes it very comfortable. However, it is slightly longer at the seam and only reaches the desired circumference at the upper waistband edge.
As the name suggests, the straight waistband is not shaped.
The inseam and upper waistband edge are the same length.
When it comes to slits, you can opt for a zipper or a concealed fly with buttonholes and buttons.
