The Buttress Jeans are a pair of high-waisted jeans with a front yoke and hidden slit pockets. Inspired by acid wash denim of the early 1980s, this modern take has a clean silhouette and is offered in three leg widths: barrel (View A), straight (View B), and wide (View C).

View A’s barrel leg fit has twisted outseams and an ankle length inseam. Views B and C both have a longer, floor-length inseam. All views include a fly zip, roomy back pockets, and generous seam allowances.

The Buttress Jeans are graded in sizes 00 - 32 and drafted for a height of 5’6” (168 cm). They are fitted through the waist with some ease through the hips and thighs. Choose a size based on your waist measurement and grade as necessary.

FROM THE TESTERS

"These jeans were super fun to make. I love the fashion-forward details that set them apart from other jeans patterns out there right now, as well as the multiple leg options. I've worn them a ton since I made them and get so many compliments. Already have my next pair planned!"

@MN_JESS_MAKES

"All the finishes lead to a great looking product. I particular like that the instructions have you close the waistband with topstitching at the top, rather than the bottom like many others, which gives a perfect finish IMO and I'm never going back! I also like the wider waistband and fun details like the bar tacks on the front pockets.  I'm already planning another pair!"

@SHAFTEDPIN

"I have made a lot of fly front pants and following the fly instructions usually takes me 2 patterns, a book and a youtube video to make sense of it.  Allie's instructions were so easy to follow I will use them to install all future fly fronts.  If fly fronts scare you this pattern will make them easy."
