Holly Stone presents a “Pac Sun” inspired tutorial on how to make a pair of DIY faux leather mens or womens joggers. She recommends 2 yards of fabric, you may need more for someone who wears a larger size.

The faux leather joggers idea is great, especially since she explains it works for both men and women. I appreciate the note about fabric yardage because faux leather mistakes can get expensive.
Cool to see a jogger pattern adapted for faux leather, that’s not something you find in basic tutorials. The reminder about needing extra fabric for bigger sizes is practical and easy to miss.
I like that Holly calls out the Pac Sun inspiration, it really helps visualize the finished look. Also good tip on grabbing more than 2 yards for larger sizes, that always gets overlooked.
Using 2 yards as a baseline is helpful, but I’m glad she mentioned sizing up on fabric needs. The Pac Sun style reference makes this feel very current and wearable, not costumey.
