    My First Trouser Project

    Why do you put flaps on your back pockets - they always seem to me to be ugly appendages. I appreciate that certain UK tailors still use them and fashion troops them out 'for a change' over last season but voluntarily I would not have them unless trying to create a period look

    My First Trouser Project

    Ah the American way of setting out dates back to front is unfortunate. 12/09/2013 means 12th September in English.

    High waisted wool trousers

    It would not be out of the way to have a work suit with high rise/braces.

    Show us your British suits

    Sadly the trousers look as if they have been taken in rather too much - badly. Two back pockets is unusual for that date.

    M2N's Very First Custom Suit

    Thanks The pockets look very neat, do you find the zips on the back pockets easy to use? The inside pockets are neat as well - unusual -more normally have their mouths bound in the lining material but very neat. I usually have zips on some of the inside pockets but buttons on the back...

    Relationship Between Pants' Rise and Jacket?

    Matt is right. I prefer to use the button point of a three button coat - ie the middle one. Whilst Matts suggests a little under I do prefer a little over that point to get the best fit.
