DIY: DOPE MEN SEW LATEST STYLE

DIY: STREET STYLE CARGO WITH MODIFIED BURDA PATTERN 6815

Cargo pants in camo print is always a dope look…

Today I’m showing off my latest DIY piece in camo print…ugh! I’ve been looking for a pair of camo cargo pants because they are hard to come by especially a pair with the perfect fit. I run into the same problem of them not fitting right, because its difficult to have the pant legs tapered with the cargo pockets, so I made my own. I modified the Burda Style Pattern 6815 and they actually came out exactly how I envisioned.

I rocked them in a trended street style look…you know…the usual extended tee, denim jacket, tan boots, etc. They give off the streetwear vibe so I put this fit together to match the style of the pants. You will see them again next week in a style that looks more like something I would wear on a day-to-day.
