FABRIC REQUIREMENTS 

Mid- to heavy-weight non-stretch denim, ideal in 10-13 oz weights. Please note that heavier-weight denims will require more “breaking in”. It is also possible to use stretch denim for this pattern, but we recommend a maximum of 2% lycra content. Since stretch denim has more give, you may find you need to size down through the hips and legs.
