He came with his original yellow jacket and shirt, but has been waiting on some bottoms. I had planned to do some jogging pants to match his jacket, but there is a bit of pilling and fading so the pants would have been soooooo fresh and clean it would have looked a bit odd.
Brainwave!! Jeans!!
I modified a Butterick pattern by adding some pockets (real, by the way..) narrowing the front and reducing the bulk in the back, as well as raising the crotch line. I added some details to the front, included a real jeans button and recycled an old pair of pre-loved jeans for the fabric.
Turned out ok, I think??
