WORKERS Baker Pants, Slim Fit, 10296 Vat Dyed Reversed Sateen

The classic Baker Pants are back this season in a vat-dyed finish.
It fades less than sulfur-treated dyes, and the processing results are more pronounced than with sulfur-treated dyes.
Slim Fit. The specifications are almost identical to the Trace MIL-T-838D, but with a shallower top and fewer front buttons. The thigh and hem widths are also narrower, similar to the Officer Trousers Slim.
If you want to wear Baker boots but find the original width a little difficult to match with your outfit, then this is for you.
Back satin is a type of coarse back satin used in bakers, created by looking at the specifications of MIL-T-838D and MIL-C-10296J fabrics. It has a soft feel. The dye is sulfur-based and the color changes drastically.
The product has been washed.
The button fly is 5 buttons on the MIL-838-D and 4 buttons on the Slim Fit. The number of buttons is also adjusted to match the difference in the depth of the top.
The buttonhole placket is secured to the front facing with bar tack stitching. This is a feature seen in classic trousers. For some reason, this was also used in military trousers for many years. Certainly, a flared placket could easily catch on something and is not ideal.
Incidentally, Levi's jeans don't have facings, and a long time ago, the placket was attached by going all the way through the body of the garment. Later, even that attachment disappeared. This is one area where I feel there's a difference in the evolution of jeans and trousers.
There's a hidden stitch just below the top buttonhole, invisible from the outside. This stitch prevents fingers from getting caught in the fabric cut inside the top buttonhole, which is not visible from the outside.
The original is basically,
It is made from four layers of fabric: the body, facing, outer placket, and inner placket, and the top and front edges are folded in, making it very thick.
I've tried adding shanks to the top buttons to adjust for the thickness, but even then, the fabric is still too stiff and uncomfortable to use.
Therefore, the inner facing/placket fabric was removed, and since the raw edge of the fabric would otherwise be touched by fingers, a hidden stitch was added to secure it.
I'm really proud of this design because I came up with it myself by sewing parts of it, without even looking at any vintage clothes.
Everyone, please copy this. I'd be happy if, after I'm gone, someone sees this setup and thinks, "This is great, the hall won't get too crowded, the person who came up with this did a good job."
