Build Your Wardrobe with the Channing Pants
Sewing your own pants is so empowering because you get to customize the fabric, the fit, and the design intention, so they totally match your style.
The Channing pants are a modern, relaxed wardrobe staple, perfect for your favorite woven fabrics, from chino or linen to wool. Mid-rise with a tapered leg, they also feature front pleats, a faux fly, slash pockets, and a fitted waistband with elastic at the back. The 1” blind hem sits right above the ankle.
