Meet the Flâneur Pants, a wide leg, mid-rise pant for all your adventures - perfect for both strolling through the countryside and exploring a new city. The Flâneurs feature a zip fly with a flat front and elasticated back. They do not have a side seam making them easier to cut and sew as well as making them perfect for sewing in prints! Store your treasures in patch pockets on the side and back. The fit of Flâneurs is comfortable and flexible. Size up for a relaxed slightly oversized pant, size down for a more fitted pant.
Flâneur is a French term that was popularized in the 19th century to describe a type of person who wanders around for their own enjoyment, generally in an urban setting. A Flâneur would be someone who saunters about town without specific purpose, seemingly just to observe and explore.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Caring for your fabrics is essential to maintain their appearance and longevity. Here are some essential fabric care tips to make your clothing last longer and look great.
First and foremost, always check the care label on your garments. While most fabrics benefit from similar care, certain items like wool may have specific instructions. For general care, wash your fabrics in cool or cold water. Hot water can degrade fibers and cause colors to fade.
Avoid using chlorine bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric over time. Instead, choose a phosphate-free detergent. These gentle detergents clean effectively without harming your textiles.
When it comes to drying your clothes, it's best to tumble dry on a low setting. This helps prevent shrinking and unnecessary wear and tear. For the best results, dry similar colors together to avoid color transfer. If you want to maximize the longevity of your fabrics, consider line-drying your clothes. This method reduces the risk of damage from the dryer’s heat and can also save energy.
Ironing your fabrics? Always check the appropriate heat settings based on the type of fabric you are working with. Utilizing the right heat can help you avoid burns and preserve the integrity of your garments.
If you have any delicate items, laundering them in a mesh bag can provide extra protection during the wash cycle. Always be mindful of embellishments and finishes when caring for your fabrics.
Ultimately, proper fabric care ensures that your clothes continue to look fresh and new. By following these easy tips, you can enjoy your favorite garments for years to come.
