These are the materials and trimmings that you need to have in order to make a bespoke pair of trousers.
Most everything I mention is linked down here.
If you find something better or cheaper elsewhere you can link it off in the comments.
It'll be appreciated by everyone.

To extend a little on fabric it needs its own video, but Where is a good place to start.
Yorkshire fabrics have a sale section: https://www.yorkshirefabric.com/collections/clearance/suiting
Avoid anything that says cotton, linen, fresco, blend (IE mixed with polyester, 'but we don't want to tell you that') and silk. Silk might be too costly if you're looking for inexpensive options.
Like I said you want a little more than a meter. 1.5m minimum I suggest.
If you're in London then you might look into woolcrest in hackney or dalston mill in dalston (not to be confused with dalston mill online)
The Chino cloth I use is inexpensive and fine to use. (despite what I just said about materials)
