Suggested Fabrics
There are a vast array of waterproof fabrics available with many different properties. These pants are versatile in terms of the fabric used, and can be made in a light to medium weight fabric with no stretch. We don't recommend using upholstery fabrics. Look for fabrics that are durable and if possible, breathable. If the person who is to wear the pants has sensory issues, take the "sound" of the fabric into consideration. Some fabrics are "crunchier" than others and make more noise when walking.
Synthetic Fabrics: Nylon, ripstop nylon, parka nylon, aluminium-backed nylon, soft shell, light weight vinyl, PUL (we only recommend experienced sewers use PUL as it can be challenging to sew with). If using a synthetic fabric, we recommend using 100% polyester thread.
Natural Fabrics: Oil skin, dry oil skin, regular oil cloth, waxed canvas, waxed cotton, laminated cotton. When using these types of fabrics, regular seam sealing tape may not stick effectively. You would need to wax the seams instead for a complete waterproofing, if desired.
Other Supplies & Notions
- Spool of coordinating thread (100% polyester)
- Elastic - 1" (25mm) wide for straps, 3/4" (20mm) for ankle and stirrup
- Large safety pin for threading elastic through
- A pair of 1" (25mm) clip-together buckles. If you prefer not to use plastic, you could use 1" (25mm) metal D-rings
- Needles: 80/12 needle for light-weight fabric, 90/14 for medium-weight fabric. if your machine struggles to get through multiple layers, then use a microtex or denim needle.
Optional:
- A slider/buckle to keep the straps tidy
- For sealing seams on synthetic fabrics: seam sealing tape, baking paper (parchment paper), iron and scissors. If using oil cloth or canvas, then beeswax for sealing.
- Non-stick (teflon) sewing foot for synthetic fabric
- Snaps or hook + loop tape to seal the optional pockets
