Sewing pattern tutorial: How to sew the Récif pants?

With its shortened line and its widened leg decorated with a wide cuff like sailor's pants, the Récif sewing pattern is a little marvel. Very comfortable to wear, the waist is mid-high and it sits well on the back thanks to its double darts. The back will be embellished with large patch pockets, and the front has impeccably finished Italian pockets thanks to a pocket entrance. It closes with an invisible side zip. It will be perfect sewn in gabardine or cotton satin , but also with medium-weight denim and fine wools such as tailor's wool .
