Here's my second pair
This time I followed the instructions from "the caffeinated tailor" on yt
It was significantly harder than the first pair and I had a lot of problems making it
They ended up too tight on many parts for different reasons.
The waist measurement is clearly off by a couple of cm, making the waistband too tight. Moreover at some point I had more fabric above the zip on one side than the other. I simply cut it knowing that the pattern purposely added a few centimeters of ease vertically, but I forgot that I should have also brought more fabric from the sides resulting in even tighter hips and seat. I suspect the pocket opening on the right is not flat as the other because of this imbalance
All in all, I don't think it's a really bad pair considering it's just my second one. I would not wear it in public, but I'm getting close.
I cannot find his "banrol canvas" in any physical store where I live (Italy), even the online ones just do not have that product. What other alternatives are there to reinforce the waistband? Here I only have thermoadhesive bands with prepunched holes for folding. Which are quite handy but lack the weight or thickness to make the waistband appear "full"
Also, what is the fabric he calls "silesia"? Can't find it anywhere, it doesn't even have an Italian translation for the word so I don't know what to look for
