Trouser break
The break is how the hem meets the shoe. The rest of the note is how we do that in the studio.
Decide with the shoes on. A clean hem with no break looks short the moment you sit. A twist in the leg shows at the hem first. If one side is longer, the cloth is pulling. That is the note to send.
A small break is a hem that rests. A large one bunches.
Decide with the shoes on. A clean hem with no break looks short the moment you sit.

The break is how the hem meets the shoe.
The hem should be even at the sides.
A twist in the leg shows at the hem first. If one side is longer, the cloth is pulling. That is the note to send.
Trouser break is a note from the studio, not a rule for every house. The pieces in this edit were finished with this habit in mind.
If a piece you have does not match the note, send a question with the name of the piece. The reply is more useful than a general rule.
An inquiry is the way to ask. Nothing on this page is a charge.
Keep the habit small enough that it happens. That is the care these pieces were made for.
