Straight cut or wide leg?
The straight and narrow
Around here, a straight cut doesn’t mean baggy. It’s comfortable, sure, with room where it matters. But it remains tidy, no big volumes.
- Higher than usual. We’ve nudged the waist up a bit to hit the sweet spot between comfort and a clean look.
- A sensible leg opening. Measuring 20cm on a size 30, it’s far from skinny, and nowhere near the wide leg we see trotting about the place these days. Well judged, just like you asked for.
- A balanced, straight cut. Room at the thighs, easy at the knee, and a clean line down to the ankle. No billowing, just tidy.
Do they fall well?
You could say that
500 grams of pure organic cotton makes quite the impression.
- A nicely textured cotton twill. You’re probably well acquainted by now with the rich character of the sorts of twills we opt for. This is no different.
- Cotton’s good, but organic cotton’s better. Ours comes certified, so you know it’s been grown and processed in a way that respects both the people making it and the planet. This time, it’s fresh from Turkey.
- 260 gsm—bang on for year-round wear. Not too light, not too heavy - great drape all year round.
Built to last?
What do you reckon?
Not only did we hunt for a top-drawer organic cotton twill, we also teamed up with some very serious trouser know-how at Expotime.
- A double belt loop at the back. Looks good, and is very handy: your belt stays put exactly where you want it.
- Double-welted back pockets. A high-quality, tailoring detail.
- A touch of fusing in the waistband. A solid, dependable way of maximising durability without messing with comfort or appearances.
- Bar-tacks reinforcing every high-stress zone. Especially at the corners of the slanted front pockets— an absolutely essential move to ensure long-term service.
- Buttons that won’t let go. Sewn on using an Ascolite machine. Now you know.
- A metal hook-and-bar closure for a tidy, reliable finish. Built to take a proper beating.
How does preordering work?
Basically, it means you buy the garment before it’s produced. By pre‑ordering, you’re the one launching the production.
With this system, we only produce what’s sold, so we avoid overproduction and can offer you an excellent quality‑price ratio.
