Description

The Rika Pants pattern offers two distinct styles in one design. With a high rise just below the natural waist, a three-piece waistband, angled front pockets, a fly front zipper, and a straight leg, the Rika Pants can be tailored or workwear-inspired based on your choice of details.

View A has a cropped, tailored look with deep hem cuffs, a tabbed waistband, angled belt loops, and rounded back pockets with flaps. View B features a full-length, utilitarian style with a classic waistband, wide belt loops, and carpenter-style back pockets.

Recommended Fabric
