Oh my goodness - I've discovered the process of adding gussets to existing trousers that I've made, and that have ALWAYS been tight in the crotch. I use Jalie 2907 (?) for all my trousers, even though I'm often using wovens and end up with garments that are too tight in the crotch. The last couple I added some depth and they're better, but I have a bunch of older ones (3?) that I really like except for the tiny little fact that I want to tear them off for most of the day while I'm wearing them.
I just added an oval gusset to the crotch of an older, navy corduroy version, since I happened to have a bunch of corduroy left over from a 2nd project. I CAN WEAR THEM AGAIN! Now I'm going to go after two other pairs. Yes, if you sit in front of me and stare at my crotch, it may look a little bit odd, but no one EVER does that. Except my children. They are interested in everything about me and it's sometimes exhausting. :)
