SIZING INFO:
The sizes are measurements of the waist in inches. To be sure please measure, jeans sizes or chino's are often sized differentl, you made need to size up 1 or 2 sizes. When measuring the waist, make sure you measure high enough, just below the ribs is the right place. Take a tape measure or cord and pull it tight enough that it is comfortable. Or use a belt that you fasten to the right size and measure that to find the right size. Instructions on how to measure can be found HERE
LENGTH:
The inseam of the trousers is 33 inch, that may seam short but corresponds with 36 inch jeans. There is also plenty of fabric in the turn ups. To lengthen or shorten ask for my blog for DIY or find a tailor near you to help. Usually they ask about €15 to €20 for it. Before shortening them, my advise is to wash them first. Though I test my fabrics on shrinkage, It might be different in a different machine, hardness of the water, different detergent etc. Always leave enough fabric to lengthen them if necessary.
MATERIAL AND CARE:
Fabric: 100% Wool, pockets 100% Cotton
Wool is dirt-repellent by nature. Brush off the trousers and hang them in the fresh air. Occasionally freshen up with a (hand) steamer. If you really must, you can wash it cold, by hand and a detergent suitable for wool. Spin it gently. Pull it back into shape a little when still wet, dry flat
SUSTAINABILITY
The wool used for these trousers are sp called 'end of line' meters. Often smaller quantities are left over from production. I am always searching for fabrics and this was a lucky find. Just enough to make a size range.
