GENERAL DESIGN: Trouser has four (4) pockets, tunnel waistband, and zipper fly with hook-n-eye closure.

TUNNEL WAISTBAND: The tunnel style waistband finishes at 2" wide and is constructed of shell fabric, one-ply of interlining, 2-1/2” wide (Blauer) elastic with silicone shirt grip, 1” elastic, and ban roll. Construction consists of the front waistband tapering at both sides, and inserted into the back tunnel waistband, with 1” elastic band for stretch and control. Ban-Roll placed along the top edge will aid in a smooth shaping, allowing a clean fold of the shell fabric and clean waist appearance overall. Bar tacks are added at the wearers’ right front and back, back aligning to the darts and hidden underneath the belt loops, to control the tunnel elastic length; wearers’ left front elastic is controlled by the continuous J-stitch from the fly construction. On the inside, the waistband elastic offers a clean appearance and clean bottom edge with the two (2) rows of silicone preventing the uniform shirt from pulling out; all waistband measurements should have 3” allowance in the center

137

back for alterations. Waist closure shall be by means of two (2) metal hook set – see Waist Closure section.

WAIST CLOSURE: Primary waist closure is a double hook and eye construction mounted on the waistband using rustproof nickel plated steel hardware as follows: Size #85 Eye with internal reinforcement plate and size #8 hook with internal reinforcement plate. Metal snaps which may become burred or crushed and cannot be replaced are unacceptable, as is single hook and eye construction.

In addition to Hook and Eye plates, the construction includes the additional internal reinforcement of 7/8” tape mounted between the plates and the body fabric to insure construction integrity for extended wear life.

Waist closure appearance is further guaranteed by mounting a #22 ligne, four-hole button with buttonhole on a fly tab closure, placed 1” below the waistband on the inside left within the fly construction. (*Women does not have a fly tab.)

FLY CONSTRUCTION: The right inside fly is reinforced with internal construction fabric and 1/8” gauge top stitched along the entire exposed edge to insure shape retention for extended wear life. The left, outside fly is fully lined internally for shape retention. Right and left fly are joined together at the base of the fly. The joined fly, forms a reinforcing tailpiece construction fully extending along the crotch seam to its intersection with leg inseams.

SIDE FASTENER (FLY ZIPPER): Delrin coil, self-healing zipper consists of locking type hardware mounted on colorfast blend of nylon and cotton, 7/16” tape.

BELT LOOPS: There are seven (7) belt loops on trouser sizes up to and including waist 45, nine (9) on sizes 46 through 60, and eleven (11) loops sizes 62” and over. Each loop shall have an opening fully 2-1/4” long and 1” wide, double needle stitched, and interlined with fusible. They shall be inserted into the waistband at the top and bottom, except the rear center loop which shall be folded & tacked top and bottom. Belt loop placement is specifically located to afford the cleanest of appearances along with proper functionality of the tunnel waistband. (*Quantity of belt loops changes per women sizing.)

DARTS: There are two (2) darts to shape the trouser. They shall be placed at the left and right back extending down from the waistband to the center of each hip pocket.

CROTCH AND SEAT ASSEMBLY: The crotch is formed below the fly at the intersection of the four body panels of the trousers as such: left front, right front, left rear, and right rear. The trouser is assembled to form this crotch by first sewing the left front to the left rear thus making the left side of the trouser, and the right front to the right rear to form the rights side. The left side of the trouser thus formed is then joined together to the right side by means of the seat seam. The trouser is not assembled by the alternate whole front to whole back method due to the unreliability of that method during extended wear life.

138

SEAT CONSTRUCTION: To insure absolute seat seam integrity, the seat seam, which joins the left and right sides of the trousers, is double sewn by means of two (2) needles each, sewing stitch type 401, double locked stitch. The two needles sew in tandem to form closely adjacent alternating stitches totaling not less than 16 per inch. Seams, which expose thread to external abrasion, are unacceptable.

Extra fabric is allowed such that seat girth and waistband diameter may be expanded or decreased by the wearer during the trousers extended wear life. Flat felled seams do not allow for alteration and are unacceptable.

CROTCH REINFORCEMENT: The crotch intersection, which is the core of the trouser, shall be reinforced with quarter linings to absorb extreme stress over an extended wear life by the internal mounting of a reinforcement gusset formed by an extension of the tail of the fly. This gusset is mounted around its perimeter by stitch 301 such that it locks together the four panels of the trouser to absolutely eliminate any potential for crotch seam failure.

OUTLETS: Thigh outlets with the back side of the inseam shall measure 1” at the crotch and tapers to 3/8” at the knee.

LEG CONSTRUCTION: The legs are fully cut for ease of movement and assembled using stitch 515, four-thread safety stitch and also lock stitching creating a split seam construction allowing tapering of the inseam. There shall also be left and right let outs of approximately 1” for 7” at the inner thigh for alteration in which the waist fits correctly but the thigh is too tight for the wearer. Front and back legs shall have permanent resin (silicone) creases starting from bottom of front pocket to bottom hem.

POCKETS: There are four (4) pockets assembled from internal construction fabric as follows:

Front: Left and right 6-1/2” quarter top style opening with 11-1/4” depth. Opening to be bar-tack reinforced at top inside waistband and at bottom across side seam. Construction includes a second reinforcing layer or “Heel” at the bottom of each pocket not less than 2” deep. Pockets, including reinforcement “Heels” are assembled using an over-edge stitch, then turned and re-stitched by stitch 301 for absolute reliability for the life of the trouser.

Rear: Left and right besom type hip pockets with bottom welt construction openings 5” wide and 6” deep. Openings have triangle bar-tack reinforced at both ends. Both pocket openings include a tab and buttonhole to close the pocket; button is sewn onto the surface of the pant below the pocket opening.


STITCHING: All stitching conforms to Federal Standard 751 specifications (FED-STD-751). All stitch types are sewn at stitch per inch (S.P.I.) rates individually set by operation at no less than 10 S.P.I. and not more than 12 S.P.I. to insure extended sewn wear life. Stitch type 401 Tandem is used at a combined S.P.I. of 16. All thread tension is evenly maintained to eliminate right or loose stitching.

139

All seam allowances are to be maintained so that there are no raw edges, run offs, twist, pleats, puckers or open seams.
