Glebe Pants Sewing Pattern PDF

The Glebe Pants [pronounced like 'gleeb'] are designed with large bodies in mind and even if you normally require adjustments to get a great fit on your pants, our hope is that these will require no, or very minimum, adjustments.

The Glebe Pant is a wide pant with a fully elasticated waist (View A) or a pleated, flat front, fully lined (optional) with an elasticated back (View B). Both views feature large slash pockets, a generous rise, and ample room through the crotch to accommodate large bodies.

We would like to acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the Glebe region, the Eora people, and pay our respects to Elders past and present.
