@martinkuester71 those trousers look fantastic! I'm still very much a beginner, but I'd love to have a go at making some trousers like that.
I'm intrigued by the waistband on the undersides. I notice that it's grown on and you are using what looks like canvas and maybe some twill tape. Is this the same in the top sides? Can you give any details on the materials and the approach you take with that? Is it any particular kind of canvas? Also, I notice that it doesn't seem to extend into the inlay of the seat seam. Do you just make a new one from scratch if the trousers need altering? What are the considerations you need to account for in the side seams?
Sorry if I'm asking too many questions. It's just all so fascinating 😅
