I'm sorry but I don't understand. What is active wear? Like sports? Why lycra and why 2%? Why not 1% or 3%? And more importantly, if you're having pants made, why are you asking about fit? If it's RTW, then the best fitting pant is the one that fits you. I don't get it.Originally Posted by EL72
While I have found Jil Sander, Prada, Zegna, etc. to a times have 2% or so of stretch fiber, to be very comfortable have not found the fit to be any different from other quality pants.Originally Posted by kitonbrioni
No, I'm doing a safari pant and want what the majority of people think is a good fit. 2% gives a good stretch without affecting the hand or making it body hugging.Originally Posted by tgfny
What's a safari pant? I am confused by your wording. When you say "I'm doing", does that mean you have the fabric and plan to have a tailor (or yourself) make these pants or simply buying OTR? If OTR, what if you find a great pair with like 5% lycra, will you dismiss them outright? Sorry, perhaps I should stay out of this thread then since I really don't get it.Originally Posted by EL72
No, I have a line of hot weather clothing. Wanted to get a good fit on my men's trouser. 2% because I've found it the best active amount of stretch without succumbing to the African iron (flame fueled.)Originally Posted by tgfny
OK, sorry but I'll stop crowding this thread with my useless posts because I seem to have no clue what this is about. Best of luck in your search.Originally Posted by EL72
Please let me know what is the best fitting pant you've seen.Originally Posted by tgfny
I like Express' slim and bootcut odd trousers - slim, ever-so-slightly flared at the bottom, with enough space for an ass. Incotex is also supposed to have great, more straight-leg trousers.Originally Posted by Augusto86
