Halsey Trousers
Halsey is a pair of semi-fitted, straight-cut trousers with pressed creases. The back is shaped with waist darts. The front pleats formed at the waistline are directed to the side seams. There are functional front slash pockets and a single back welt pocket on the right side. The waistband sits at the waistline and features belt loops. It fastens with a sew-on hook and bar. The trousers have a fly front zipper closure and are floor length, with a slight break at the bottom.

To sew these trousers, choose suiting fabrics with the following properties:

- the following fabrics are recommended: wool suiting, gabardine, crepe, heavyweight silk, linen
Attention! We do not recommend stretchy knit fabrics and lightweight sheer fabrics (blouse-weight silk).
For the lining, choose lining fabrics made of artificial fibers (viscose), blends (viscose + elastane, viscose + polyester), or synthetics (polyester, polyester + elastane).
