M-01 · Men’s regular straight
A clean men’s straight
W-01 · Women’s high-rise wide leg
All gallery images are illustrative placeholders, not verified stock photographs.
A high-rise wide-leg reference in rigid cotton denim, washed as a medium vintage blue with subtle whiskers and thigh fading. The development points are waist contour, hip ease, inseam, grading and branding.
Development reference. Final fabric, fit, wash and commercial terms are confirmed through sampling and the purchase order. Fabric weight is a pre-wash reference specification.
Illustrative development specification until the factory has photographed and approved the physical garment for public display.
Full specification
| Field | Value | Expansion |
|---|---|---|
| Style | W-01 · WOMEN’S · High-rise wide leg | Keep this style number on the hangtag, the size set and the enquiry so the wide-leg pattern is never confused with a men’s straight. |
| Fit | High rise · relaxed hip · full wide leg | High rise, with ease through the hip and a full wide leg. A wide hem does not replace a correctly drafted seat. |
| Fabric | 100% cotton · 11 oz/yd² pre-wash · rigid | Rigid 100% cotton denim at an 11 oz pre-wash reference. The lighter starting weight helps the wide hem drape; a heavier fabric will stand away from the body. |
| Colour base | Indigo | Indigo base, taken to a medium vintage depth rather than a clean dark shade. |
| Wash | Medium vintage blue, subtle whiskers and thigh fading | Medium vintage blue with subtle whiskers and thigh fading. Whisker placement and fade strength are locked on the approved sample, not on a street-style photograph. |
| Customise | Waist contour, hip ease, inseam, grading and branding | Typical changes: waist shape, hip ease, inseam, size grading and your branding. Changing to a skinny or barrel silhouette needs a new pattern. |
| Trims | Button, rivets, zip, patch and labels specified at sampling | Hardware scale and finish are part of the women’s design. Specify them at sampling — men’s hardware is not copied across by default. |
| Sizing | Buyer size chart and grading · inches or centimetres | Tell us whether you sell by waist inches, numeric sizes or another code, and which size is the fitting sample. |
| MOQ | Quoted per style, colour and wash | Quoted per style, colour and wash. Fabric, branded-trim and wash-batch minimums are included in the project quotation. |
| Sampling | Timing and cost confirmed after pattern/material review | If several fit samples are required across sizes, each revision is scheduled after the previous written comments. |
| Bulk | Schedule agreed after sample approval and material readiness | Bulk follows written approval of the fit sample, the wash standard and the size set. |
Measurement points
For women’s programmes, confirm at least the base size plus one size up and one size down before grading the full set.
Measurement-points diagram
Technical drawing forthcoming.
Measuring action
Photograph forthcoming.
| Measurement point | How we measure |
|---|---|
| Waist | Across the waistband at the agreed point (top edge or mid-band), laid flat, doubled |
| Hip | Across at the agreed distance down from the back rise, laid flat, doubled |
| Front rise | Front crotch seam to top of waistband |
| Back rise | Back crotch seam to top of waistband |
| Thigh | Across at 2.5 cm below the crotch seam, or the buyer’s stated point, doubled |
| Knee | Across at mid-inseam or a fixed distance from the crotch, doubled |
| Leg opening / hem | Across the hem edge, doubled |
| Inseam | Crotch to hem (state whether the cuff is included) |
| Outseam | Top of waistband to hem |
| Waistband height | Height of the waistband itself |
| Back pocket position | Distance from waistband lower edge and from side seam |
| Extra point | Why it matters here |
|---|---|
| High-hip / upper hip | High-rise fit at the hip bone decides pinch vs gap |
| Low hip | Together with seat ease, decides sit room |
| Hem opening laid flat and on body | The same hem can collapse after wash on a lighter fabric |
| Back waist gap test | Fit must be checked on body; flat measurements alone are not enough |
On this page, mark high-rise and hem opening as the two call-outs on the shared measurement diagram.
Measure the garment laid flat, after the agreed wash and press. If your chart uses a different point — for example thigh at 1 inch down instead of 2.5 cm — write that on the enquiry. We will not guess.
Base-size chart
Industrial garments cannot be promised to the millimetre. Tolerances are agreed in the order documents and checked after wash.
For women’s programmes, confirm at least the base size plus one size up and one size down before grading the full set. A full size run is not expanded from a single approved base without a graded check.
| Size | Waist | Hip | Front rise | Back rise | Thigh | Knee | Hem | Inseam |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base size (factory to name) | To be confirmed on the approved sample | |||||||
| Tolerance | Agreed in the order documents — not promised as zero variance on this page | |||||||
What can change
| What changes | Typical approach | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Waist contour | Shape the back waist, change waistband height, add elastic or darts | Wrong contour wrinkles or opens the back waist |
| Hip ease | Add or reduce seat and thigh | Too little ease leaves the wide hem standing while the wearer cannot sit |
| Inseam / hem | Change length and hem opening | Too wide a hem on a soft fabric can collapse |
| Whiskers / thigh fade | Adjust within the vintage programme | Over-processing weakens fabric and risks left/right asymmetry |
| Grading | Rebuild grades to the buyer’s size code | Blowing the base size by a flat percentage breaks large sizes |
| Branding | Patch, labels, hardware | Unauthorised artwork is refused |
Linked wash · Vintage blue
W-01 is shown in Vintage blue. The wash page records how we define whisker placement, thigh fading and seam contrast, and where this look can damage strength if pushed too far.
Construction & hardware
Pocketing must not show through the lighter thigh-fade area. On a high rise, back-pocket placement reads higher — left and right must stay symmetric. Wide-hem seam allowance and overlock must survive swing without fraying beyond the approved look.
Sampling & bulk path
- 1Select W-01 on the enquiry form, or list the parts you want to change.
- 2Confirm fabric, wash, size chart and trim artwork.
- 3Fit the base-size sample; revise if needed.
- 4Approve graded samples or the size set — one base size does not go straight into a full bulk size run.
- 5Approve the wash standard, then schedule bulk after material readiness.

Style FAQ
Can this pattern be graded like a men’s waist chart?
Not automatically. Women’s rise and hip must be graded with their own rules.
Will the wide hem stay open after wash?
That depends on fabric and finish. We approve it on the washed sample, not on the unwashed pattern alone.
Can you copy a branded wide-leg you saw online?
No. Send your own design or start from this reference without copying protected details.
