These trousers are designed by Alex Schaufele, who created the design for our issue no.14, the DENIM issue. They are fitted from the waist and have darts at the hips to create a very roomy and relaxed, a bit like a boyfriend style cut. I made my VERTEX in a size 3, although I would normally make a size 2, as I really like my trousers a bit looser on the waist. The legs are a bit long, but I really like folding them up, so I kept the length.

I made the shaped back waistband, which allows you to channel 1980s jeans. For the front I used the plain waistband, while the buckle waistband option is also super cool! The different waistband options can be mixed and matched however you wish to fir your personal taste and skill.

Hacks and modifications: I used medium weight denim from my stash, so I had to make extra seams for the front and back legs. I made the inner waistband out of a different fabric, and created the front pocket facings by cutting the pocket bags out of batist lining. I made the front pocket openings a little smaller with topstitching. I moved the back pockets slightly to the side. I topstitched the lower edge of the inner waistband with a folder finish (the original pattern calls for a stitch in ditch and a serged waistband finish).

I hope you enjoy making your own pair of VERTEX trousers!
