Abstract

This study provides a size specification and ease for the development of pants for working clothes in the construction industry according to season. We collected and measured the size specification of 4 types of Spring/Fall pants, 4 types of winter brushed bonding pants, and 4 types of winter padded pants. Subjective comfort evaluation and analysis of ease sensation were performed for all products on 12 subjects. The average size specifications for the pants according to seasons were as follows. Spring/Fall pants had 74.0/80.0cm waist size (relaxed/maximum stretched) and 104.0cm hip size. Winter brushed bonding pants had 76.0/83.4cm for waist size and 106.0cm for hip size. Winter padded pants had 71.5/84.0cm for waist size and 112.8cm for hip size. When designing a pattern by comparing product size specification and subject body size, the recommended ease is 0.2/7.2cm for waist size (relaxed, maximum stretched) and 13.6cm for hip size for Spring/Fall pants, and 0.2/6.2cm for waist size and 11.6cm for hip size of winter brushed bonding pants, and -5.3/7.2cm for waist size and 19.4cm for the hip size of winter padded pants.
