I just recently got a pair of 60/40 Wool/Viscose pants from Turnover. The fit is very good and light and loose.

After two days of light wear (just walking, sitting on plastic or upholstered chairs), I noticed some pulling at the rear seam, as seen here:


Do any of you have this problem in your lighter and more "fragile" pants? I don't really know what I can do to avoid this; the wear was about as gentle a day as I ever have. Can it be reinforced? Do you avoid certain movements?

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
