- THE MAKING OF THE MINIMALIST SLIM PANTS -
-- TRUE ARTISANAL WORK PROCESSES --

One of the great Joys of owning Zfactorie is that I can come to the workrooms on any given morning and decide to adjust/ rearrange the schedule as needed
We are working in the "between season" items now (along with 2 capsules) and I decided to give a real time coverage of preparing of a pair of minimalist slim pants sample in the New heavy Linen(s) that we offered the preorder on.

The pants is in process of being made now, and will be ready with both pictures and measurements before the end of the day. Full production will be done early next week and be ready for shipping on Wednesday

here is some activity getting sampling done today:

cutting going on of pattern laid onto the fabric

the Body and Parts are Cut out to prepare for sewing

The Pants is overlocked and sewing has began

Dyebath is already prepared for stage one of our two stage dyeing process

Dyebath number 2 is prepared and being heated for stage 2 of the dying/ color curing process

Fly pieces and buttonholes are already being made for assembly


these were earlier today, at the moment the pants is about 80% complete and once done will go directly to the dyebath...

the pants is Done sewing and added to the dyebath:

Ive been eyeing the high neck inner leather. My only worry is the 52 not fitting me since i ended up having to size up on the leather henrikson to a custom 54!

Any other comments on the fit of the inner jacket (or any ZB outerwear for that matter)? All I own are ZB bottoms. Are they generally much slimmer? Like recent Rick Owens...I have to size up because they run extra small

we sold a good bit of outerwear this season

Asymmetric lapel Coat.
Sold out of Tri Zip Leather in Maroon
Sold Several of the Henriksson in Bison
and a good bit if the Empodicles Hoodie
the Grey Cashmere Coat we sold two before they were listed

We havent sold any of the black
the Inner Leather we sold only two.

Its a great Jacket....
@Noctone has one of the earlier Iterations in Calf and im sure several people have the horween horse leather version and could comment
this seasons version is on the stiffer side and needs breaking in, but its a great jacket. I have one in 48 and I love it even if I haven worn it much

 

[Zamb]

the pants is DONE.......Pics coming shortly

the Inner Leather we sold only two.

The blue-ish jacket? that surprises me, it looked awesome.

The blue-ish jacket? that surprises me, it looked awesome.

this is the reason we will be offering certain cervices and doing pop ups etc. these things are better seen in person and tried on ,
Sometimes great garments languish because of bad pictures, too large/ small for the model and a myriad of other reasons.

that Inner Leather is one of the best leathers we ever made. the blue is dark enough (with hints of black) and goes well with other colors including black. but the pictures..............again, the pictures

 

[Zamb]

the pictures for the MINIMALIST SLIM PANTS IN HEAVY LINEN ARE UP.

there will be two variants of the pants.
(1) the HERRINGBONE, WHICH IS SHOWN IN THE PICTURE

I have one from a few years back and I'm assuming the fit is essentially the same now. I'm more or less a standard 38 US, but I usually wear 46 in Zam's tops (except Henriksson items, which run a bit slimmer and I size up to 48 for). The inner leather I have is a size 48 and fits well, although I'm pretty sure I could've taken it in 46 and been fine. 48 has enough room that I can layer a hoodie or some other thick layer underneath. Dunno if any of these references will help but I usually wear: IV in Schneider, 2 in Attachment, 48 in Eidos, Lemaire, Geller and Forme, and S in SEH Kelly and Leder.

e: here's a pic from a few years back

@Zamb I really want that inner jacket do you think the 52 would be too small though? I know you mentioned that it's not cut as slim as the Henrikson. My current Henrikson in 54 is loose enough to wear a hoodie under. This ideally would be slimmer than that but not as slim as a 52 Henrikson ideally

@Benesyed
the body of it is not tight, i generally wear a 58 and the one i have now is 48, so it should be fine for you in size 52.

I am going to send you a PM
