They are made out of heavy cotton twill or denim. Here's a picture to give you an idea of the sides: click here I would bet you can use a cargo pants pattern and modify them, using the picture. ------ "We don't impose our rhythm on Nature.

I would just use a straight-leg jean pattern and add the loops and pockets you want. If you've got a RTW pair you want to recreate just trace the pockets and placements and add to your pattern. ------ I've moved!

Then I just traced the pockets on a RTW pair to make them carpenter style. It may be OOP, not sure. Kwik Sew's jeans are too fitted for carpenter jeans. The Jalie pants may be a good starting point, too. The Burda fits DH the best!
