The Secret to Better Pant Fit | Crotch Depth, Crotch Extension Length, & Rise

Pant pattern making can feel confusing, and one of the trickiest areas is always the crotch. If your pants don’t fit right, this is usually where the problem starts. In this video, I’m doing a deep dive into the pant crotch. Instead of drafting pants from scratch, I’ll be using my basic pant block to show you: ✅ How to measure crotch depth from the body ✅ How to determine crotch extension length for different fits ✅ How to draw a smooth crotch curve ✅ How to find the hip line from the crotch level ✅ The difference between crotch depth and rise Understanding these concepts will help you draft with confidence and adjust patterns for a better fit — whether you’re a beginner or already working in the fashion industry. ************************************************ 🎊 Masterclass – Pant Base Frame 🎊 https://www.patternstudio101.com/balance Learn how to draft a pant base frame and fix pant balance issues. 🟢 PAD System Cloud 🟢 https://www.padsystem.com/content/pricing Get 5% off professional digital pattern-making software with the code PS101A.
