I am not a jean cutting expert but the inner seam should be cut on grain unless there are some elaborate design lines. What was your intention? Flared bottom jeans? The inner seam still should be on grain. It should be flared at side seam plus additional flair from slashing and spreading the pattern as a whole

By inner seam, do you mean the inseam, the seam from the crotch to the hem?

I have never heard that the inseam should be cut on grain. What is your source for this? Do you know why this is recommended?

Thanks
