From Merchant & Mills:
The Strides pattern makes a pair of straight, wide-leg trousers influenced by classic menswear. Shorten the leg pattern and you have a pair of neat shorts.
Step out in these elegant, timeless gentlemen's trousers and stand side by side with the big boys. With a waistband that sits right on the waist and flattering wide legs, they are ideal for cutting a dash at the art gallery or a saunter down the promenade. Traditionally constructed, they feature slant side pockets, zipped fly with guard, front pleats and belt loops. For those balmy summer days we have shortened the pattern to make an elegant pair of shorts that still retains all the classic features -- waistband, pleated front, fly zip and slant side pockets.
Probably the most advanced in the book, the Strides trousers and shorts will give a huge amount of satisfaction once completed but the techniques to need careful studying as the processes are a little different.
