Pant Cuff

Pant Cuff (n.)

The turned up and stitched section of the bottom of the trouser leg.

Most trousers come unhemmed (unfinished) near the ankle, the tailor will take a measurement for the break while the wearer is in shoes.

Pant cuffs are a must for trousers with double pleats and optional for single pleat trousers.

The purpose of having pant cuffs is to protect the trouser bottoms from fraying and dirtying.
