I just bought a pair from Epaulet and they have 8 inch openings...which i find to be slightly wider than I like. I actually think the perfect fitting pants are the WWM herringbone ranger pants. Do you know any other brands that have this slim of a leg opening and don't cost an insane amount of money? Also, do you have any idea how much the Ovadia & Sons pants will run and what the specific specs are (i.e. thigh, knee and rise)?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-22753014527191025862010-12-16T16:17:21.422-05:002010-12-16T16:17:21.422-05:00they look fine and neatthey look fine and neatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3895647038898538515.post-44820514798962046732010-12-16T15:27:11.635-05:002010-12-16T15:27:11.635-05:00http://s891.photobucket.com/albums/ac113/Zuschneid...http://s891.photobucket.com/albums/ac113/Zuschneider/Resources/Cutter%20and%20Tailor/?action=view&current=IMG_3530.jpg<br /><br />Here is the art of trousers, hand made, hand cut by a German cutter and tailor.

I mean, the answer could just be, "Because I think it looks nice" and that's fine. Personal preference is just dandy.<br /><br />But is there something more going on her? Something more "mechanical" about these elements (smaller opening, bigger cuffs) or some ratio aspect that contributes to a better look? Or is it just a matter of aesthetics?<br /><br />"This is good" is great for copying, but the "why" actually teaches, ya know?Doughttp://noisymime.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.com
