Burda Style For people who sew
Description
My brother is 6 feet 7 inches tall, with a 38" inseam and he’s a guitarist in three different bands, so I designed some jeans for him that I thought would suit a rock star. The special details are darted knees and a gusseted crotch. Neither of these details are particularly functional in any way, they just look cool. I used a self-drafted pattern and heavy denim.

Fab! Very functional. I have a friend who is nearly as tall, and he has a hell of time getting anything to fit, let alone look this cool. Plus, you appear to have covered some of the fundamental breaking points on mens pants, so he would probably be very comfortable on stage. Well done!
