Altering the pattern as with pants only without the complications of the crotch is my suggestion. Is the pattern too long in the rise, leg width problem, or leg lenghth problem? Or do you have 1 pattern that you are trying to apply to a group of riders? The main thing is to keep the grainlines straight, even though you will probably be constructing with leather(?) Send me more specific info & I'll help you. Good Luck!
