Meet the Meriam Trousers: woven pants you'll actually enjoy wearing! Classic trousers can be pretty uncomfortable if your waist spreads when you sit down - and whose doesn't? But thanks to an innovative flex waistband, the Meriam Trousers keep you comfortable while standing or sitting, without compromising on style and sophistication!

The Meriam has the classic details you love in a trouser: a zip fly with a hidden closure, front slash pockets, straight legs, and optional back welt pockets. But best of all, you'll get a fabulously comfortable fit with a flex waistband that gently expands by 3-4" as you sit down, plus the option of a full bum adjustment piece, already done for you. More...

  • Black Windowpane Essex Linen - There's something so appealing about windowpane fabrics. They combine the contrasting colors of a stripe with the symmetry of a plaid without being busy or oppressive. This black windowpane gets even better because it has the breathability and softness of linen. With a supple drape and smooth hand, your trouser will feel as wonderful as they look, and, I can assure you, they will look wonderful!
  • Pecan Light Gabardine Cotton - Atelier Brunette recently released a lighter weight version of their cotton gabardine, and we are here for it! With a twill weave and structured drape, this fabric acts similarly to denim, but with the softness and suppleness of viscose. In a delicious caramel brown, it is classic and warm, perfect for fall outfits. A gorgeous fabric!
  • Indigo Washed Linen Cotton Blend - Thin and medium weight, this linen has washed finish that stabilizes the fabric and gives it a smooth, slub hand. With a supple drape, it will give your trousers almost suiting look, while still retaining all the breathability and durability that makes us love linen. A sophisticated yet relaxed choice for your wardrobe!

Wow

The Indigo Pre-Quilted Stripe fabric in this box just blew me away. The pictures and description just did not do it justice.
The box comes with all the notions needed to complete the project. It's lovely to have a new needle for each new product.

Favorite Winter Trousers

This box arrived just in time for the cooler weather. The trousers by The Assembly Line are great. I was a bit skeptical of the double pleats on the front and double darts in the back. Once I was done, I felt like I stepped out from the 1920s or 30s. I'm 5'10" and normally need to find jeans/pants with a 34" inseam. I was very surprised at the length of these trousers since their website state that they draft their patterns for a height of 5'6". I decided not to add any extra length and they ended up being just right -- with a narrow hem -- when I wear flats. I would definitely add an inch or two next time to widen the hem and make them a little longer to wear with any type of small heel.

I also really loved the buttons that were included in the box.

I am already planning on making another pair of these trousers for this winter.
