I'm considering using these trousers as my 'ideal' to send to Luxire for replication (the cut is the best I have for fitting my flat seat and narrow hips without 'diaper butt'). Can anyone suggest any changes I might want to request to ensure a better fit? I'm considering a very slightly higher rise and a very slightly slimmer thigh and leg.

I also wonder if there is any way of shifting the balance - i.e. moving the angle at which the trouser leg hangs forward. Is this achieved by relatively increasing rear or front rise? Alternatively, perhaps the best thing is to avoid trousers that are too slim between knee and opening. I'm thinking that the angle of my calves means that any balance adjustment will mean that the catch at the calf.

Have you considered emailing @luxire ? Ashish is very good at weighing in on changes and will know how to note them in your request so that his team can get it right. That said, those trousers are definitely a good starting point.
