Men's shorts pattern - LEO

13,0017,00

The Léo pattern is designed for men. A practical and comfortable pair of swimming shorts. They're also easy to wear as a casual, fashionable piece of clothing.

You can choose between 2 versions:
- model A: Bermuda-style mid-length shorts.
- model B: short shorts.

Each version includes options:
- 1 - two side pockets
- 2 - a patch pocket on the back
- 3 - mesh inner briefs

The waistband is elasticated with a drawstring.

We designed the Léo shorts to be both functional and elegant.
The finishes are designed to be professional!

Made from a warp and weft fabric, the Léo shorts are easy to make, provided you have a few notions of sewing and know how to use a sewing machine.
If you are a beginner, we advise you to make the pattern without the options: pockets, inner briefs - which make assembly more complicated.

The shop also sells the right textiles to make these shorts. All you have to do is get started!

The Idonim patterns are easy to understand and use. A step-by-step guide with photos will accompany you during the making of the shorts.

You will also find some additional tips and tricks for choosing your supplies (type of needle, appropriate textiles, assembly techniques ...)

Pattern and instructions available in English and French; downloadable or in paper format.

The pattern is sold with its instruction booklet for sizes 38 to 48 (FR) / S to XXXL inclusive (2 to 7 international sizes)

You'll find the fabric in a range of colours in the men's swimwear section of the shop, as well as a kit for making the inner briefs.
