Cornelius cycling breeches: What You Need
To make Cornelius, you will need the following:
- Basic sewing supplies
- About 2 metres (2.2 yards) of a suitable fabric (see Cornelius Fabric options)
- About 0.5 metres (0.6 yards) of lining fabric (see Cornelius Fabric options)
- Interfacing for the waistband (see Cornelius Fabric options)
- A zip or 3 buttons for the fly
- 3 or 7 Buttons for waistband and leg bands
Note
The number of buttons you need are dependent on the cuff style you are using. Keystone requires 7 in total whereas Traditional and Elegant require 3 in total. You may also want to use smaller buttons for the leg bands compared to the waistband but this is up to you.
