I have had my eye on a pair of leather pants for awhile now. Maybe I have been watching too much Sons of Anaracy. Who knows. I have seen vegan leather leggings pop up all over the place. So much that I had to google what the heck vegan leather was just to find out it’s just another term for what we called “pleather” in the 90s. But nonetheless, I had to have a pair. So I was beyond thrilled when I saw that Girl Charlee was now selling STRETCH vegan leather! I would finally get my pair for a DIY bargain vs the $100+ prices I was seeing online., including this pair from Nordstroms that was going for $920! (Ok mind you, those are real lambskin leather, but still, who pays that much for leather leggings when you can just make your own!) 
For the pattern, I used the Sew Simple Leggings from So Sew Easy Patterns. I have used this pattern twice before (see those) and just love them! But this was my first time using stretch leather. It worked relativity the same. I cut a size 5 and added an extra 1.5 inch to the length.
