Seasonally-Appropriate

Unlike shorts, vests, winter coats and heavy boots, tailored trousers can be worn all year round. But while they might stick with us through thick and thin, this doesn’t mean you shouldn’t consider the season and adapt your styling approach to suit. Always remember that your entire wardrobe should shift as the weather changes.

When it’s all about staying cool in the sun, tweed will only serve to make you feel hot and uncomfortable. Likewise, when the rain is pouring, the wind is blowing and your beard is frosty, those cropped cotton trousers just won’t be up to scratch.

Combat this by paying close attention to choice of fabric, along with your other layers, footwear and accessories, making sure you respond directly to your environment – stripping back or layering up depending on the situation.

Final Word

Tailored trousers are a worthy alternative to our much loved jeans and chinos. The time spent floating around the periphery of mainstream fashion has allowed them to mature and adapt, meaning that now, as they step into the limelight, they are more than ready to cement their timeless and classic status.
