How to Choose Double-Pleated Trousers and What to Pay Attention To

It might seem simple to choose these trousers, but it’s not that easy. I can’t name many brands where you can find good trousers of this model. And if you’re asking for them to be cheap—forget about it and don’t even ask.

However, I can definitely tell you how to choose the right trousers that fit well, because I’ve studied them thoroughly, and let me remind you, I used to make them myself. The most important thing I look at first is the amount of fabric added to the pleats. If there’s not enough fabric, the trousers won’t fit well. Now, imagine how much fabric is added in mass-market products when they make these trousers in thousands and try to cut costs. You won’t find quality trousers like these in the mass market.

In our trousers, we add 5 centimeters to the main pleats and 3 centimeters to the side pleats, which helps create a good balance, extra volume, and freedom. If you like cuffs at the bottom, they shouldn’t be 2-3 centimeters wide. A good cuff width always looks nice. We make them 5 centimeters wide.

Which pleats are better—forward or reverse? We exclusively make forward pleats. I have my own explanation for this, and let me share it. I’m a fan of clean lines, and forward pleats follow the lines of the hips, body, and legs. Reverse pleats can create a slight imbalance, and for me, they don’t look great because I played football and my legs aren’t straight but slightly bent. And generally, most people’s legs aren’t perfectly straight.

If you want trousers without belt loops, I recommend a waistband width of 5-6 centimeters. I like this style.

Waistband Width: If you want trousers without belt loops, I recommend a waistband width of 5-6 centimeters. I like this style.

Cheap Buttons and Adjusters: The hardware is also important, so always pay attention to the quality of buttons and adjusters.

How much do these trousers cost? I haven’t seen good trousers for less than 200 euros. That’s the starting price and can go higher depending on the material, brand, and tailoring.

As I’ve mentioned before, I always start building my outfits around such trousers. I imagine what shoes I’ll wear with them, which shirt will match best, a jacket, coat, and other details.

And yes, thank you for the great response to my trousers. Just a reminder, 98% of them are our own production. Will they be available to you? I have good news: we have started thinking about the concept, but you’ll have to wait a little longer.
