Trouser Pattern Corrections: |Inseam and Outseam Balancing
1.) Balanced outseam and inseam.
A pant with the balanced outseam and the inseam hangs with
no drag lines, and the leg is not touching ether side.
To determine the correct balance, ask the fit model to stand
straight with legs slightly spread. The correct balanced pant
will have the model’s leg in the center following the grain line.
2.) Outseam is hiking, inseam is hugging the leg and
pant has drag lines.
First, check the pattern for the grain line location and for the
leg balance. If both are correct that indicate the wrong balance
between the outseam and the inseam.
To correct:
Increase the side seam length by: Moving the waist up at the
side seam, to 0”at the center front
OR
Decrease the inseam length by moving: The front rise down at
the inseam, to 0” at hip, and the waist down at rise, to 0” at
the side seam.
