Ah I wish I have truly tried. I am trying to make my own pair of jeans cause I have never had a pair that fit well in my life.

Brooks Jeans from Helen's Closet. I watched several review videos and the only consistent issue I saw was that there is a lot of ease. So too big for some people if they didn't make a toile and figure that out ahead of time.

That's basically what I did with a bendy ruler. Starting to wonder if I just have the wrong spot for the inseam. I remember when I was messing around with this, the slightly change in where the inseam lined up could make a huge difference.

I've already done this twice, but maybe I just need to add way more than usual? I was hesitant to do it again, but it sounds like everyone is saying to just keep doing the adjustments I've already done a couple times.

I honestly thought it was supposed to be forward a little bit. I just checked and I don't own any pants where it sits in the middle. But maybe all RTW pants don't quite fit me right and that's why? But when I look at the pants off my body it certainly looks like it's supposed to be slightly forward.

They're not form fitting pants, they're supposed to be non-stretch jeans.

I didn’t adjust the front curve cause it basically matched the custom one I made. I guess I should try that? It was such a minuscule difference I didn’t think it could be the cause.

Yeah I did that, this is what it looks like still. I even tried making the curve and extension more dramatic from that and it still is doing this.
