After finding the right size jeans, you don't like the style because the legs are straight or taper below? Whether you're looking to change the shape of your jeans legs to match your boots or simply want to style them with bootcut pants, take advantage of your sewing machine skills to widen the bottoms of your trouser legs for a unique look.

Step

Step 1. Determine the desired width of the trouser leg and the length of the seam on the outer side of the trouser leg that needs to be opened

In order for the modification to look attractive, make sure the outer seam of the pants leg is opened a maximum of 3 cm below the knee.

Step 2. Determine the fabric for the godet

To make a godet, use a fabric that is almost the same thickness as the fabric of the pants, for example, denim godet for denim pants, khaki godet for khakis.
To make the godet and trouser look different, look for patterned fabrics in contrasting colors. Also, use fabric paint or lace to decorate the godet. If you want to disguise a godet, use a fabric that is the same color and thickness.

Step 3. Use a plier to open the outer seam of the trouser leg starting from the bottom to the desired height

Later, the upper end of the opening on the outer side of the trouser leg must be sewn (so as not to increase in length) during the installation of the godet.

Step 4. Use a tweezer to pry open the leg hem 5-6 cm from the edge of the fabric

The ends of the trouser legs must be hemmed again when hemming the godet.

Step 5. Measure the length of the outer side opening of the trouser leg

Step 6. Use these measurements to create a godet

Step 7. Prepare 2 rectangular sheets of fabric for the godet, stack them, then fold them in half

Draw a diagonal line on the outer side of the fabric.

Make sure the diagonal line on the godet is slightly longer than the outer opening of the trouser leg.
When marking the bottom side of the godet fabric (eg 5 cm from the fold of the fabric), keep in mind that you will get a triangular piece of fabric whose base is 10 cm long because the fabric is folded.
The two godet fabrics should be stacked to ensure they are the same size and shape.

Step 8. Cut both slanted sides of the godet together to make a symmetrical triangle

Step 9. Turn the trousers over so the insides are outside

Step 10. Place the godet on the opening of the trouser leg, then hold it with a pin

Make sure the inside of the godet is up.

Step 11. Sew the godet and trouser legs together while removing the pins one by one

For a neater result, sew the trouser leg following the original stitch so that the width of the seam does not change.

Step 12. Use an iron to press the seams to prevent the godet from folding

Step 13. Turn the pants so that the outside is outside and then sew the seams and trouser fabric together

Thus, the seams on both sides of the godet and the top of the godet are not folded. Sew the top of the godet with the back stitch a few times to keep the thread from slipping.

When sewing the seam and trouser joint, slide it up the inside of the trouser leg so that it stacks behind the machine shoe. First flatten the fabric you want to sew.

Step 14. Fold the ends of the trouser legs, then sew to make the hem follow the original seam as well as hem the godet

Step 15. Turn the pants so the inside is outside, then do the same for the second godet

Step 16. Cut the hanging thread

Wear the modified trousers with confidence!

Tips

Before changing the shape of the leg of your jeans, take the time to practice using trousers that are no longer worn.
Do not cut the fabric on the leg of the pants that you want to widen. Open the seam by prying at the thread to make it easier for you to attach the godet to each side of the fabric where the stitches have been opened.
The shape of the legs of the jeans can be changed simply by stretching the ends of the pants to the desired shape once the pants are washed. Also, you can lengthen the pants a little bit by pulling the ends down, then hang them up to dry on their own. The stiffness of the jeans will go away after a few minutes of wearing the pants.
