Thanks guys for your replies, it's very much appreciated!

@luxire Thanks for the input and I have contacted the Luxire team previously for advice.
What was surprising with the trousers I had replicated was that I did in fact actual request both of your suggestions for the the trousers which were to be replicated (just to be sure I'd have enough room, those being to reduce the inseam and increase the rise both front & and back at the crotch; yet still the same issue.

I am by no means a tailor, but is there a significant reason why this "wedgie effect" would be occurring more so while seated only?

I do feel a lot of this issue has to do with the curve of the seat and not allowing enough room.

Do send us an email and we can review your images again. The image based diagnostic works quite well but has its limitations. Can check if something was missed.
---------------------------------------
Customers often change measurement while measuring a garment based on the issue they see. Often, these end up with unexpected results.
One such error is of reducing the thigh. There is some correlation between the back-rise and thigh measurement.

Another big issue we see is of pants being tight at the calf. The causes the pant's leg to suddenly curve backwards from just under the knee, causing drag lines behind the lower thigh.

To solve this, we have started making the pants legs curved, like used to be done about a century ago. It is a complex technique and works wonders on wool, linen pants. Does not work on cotton though.

So I had my test pair altered by the tailor / twins (Pinnas and Needles) and here are the results:

I have to say they are easily the best fitting and quality trousers I own.

The fabric is mid grey Dugdale fine worsted wool.

Thoughts?

They look good to me, and you answered the most important question: how do you feel about them?

If you want fit feedback, I recommend taking front, side, and rear photos. The back is the hardest to get right, and the least often examined by the wearer. You can check Murl's photo or UrbanComp's recent article for comparison.

Looking to send in my best fitting pair of jeans to have replicated. Anyone have any fabric choice recommendations for something on the lighter weight (not 15 oz.) Of the denim options, a dark indigo, not a grey or a black? Looks like there are several choices at the 79 and 99 USD price points. Any other tips appreciated.

I assume I can send a pair and tell Luxire that this is a shrunk but stretched pair and they can adjust measurements to to account for shrinkage?

Just saw this pair of trousers from B&Tailor Instagram feed. I am unable to identify the kind of pleats used here. Any idea?

 

[sdfzs]

Should be standard double reverse pleats

 

[Nemesis_4]

I prefer pockets on seam to slant when I go for double pleats, I always choose forward, though from what I can tell with reverse I feel the same on pocket placement.

+1 Wow, I didn't know they'd gotten so much rain.

Finally got my second pair of trousers. The fit is very nearly there.

I have to say I was very impressed with this pair.

I also ordered a indigo chambray popover shirt. Quality is great, and that roll...

It definitely needs adjusting though, especially around the hips which is causing it to ride up a bit, but as a first go it was pretty good.

 

[Camillo]

What is this collar? Is it a standard one made by Luxire?

Thanks mate. All well here. It has not been too bad for us, I guess due to the prayers of all our well-meaning customers.
