Intro
I've been constantly frustrated when taking in jeans at the waist. When taking in through the center back waistband, the back curve never seems right and there's all that conspicuous topstitching right in the middle of the rear. Taking darts into the pockets can add more issues, mainly moving pockets over, or living with pockets that pouch. The side seams have those rivets, and besides, the excess fabric isn't really at the sides, but pretty much in the back pieces. I decided to deal with the sides anyway.
