Gi Pants
Part of a three-piece kung fu uniform—or just the most amazingly comfortable pants that your kid will never want to take off.
The pants begin with a simple hem at the cuff in a contrasting color; the legs are then joined at the top, so that there is only the smallest seam to stitch at the end. Elastic is added at the waistband for a customized fit.
