The Garments

Trousers

The most-worn, least-considered garment a man owns. Cut to your actual rise and finished to your shoe, a proper trouser changes how everything above it hangs.

★ 4.7 · 150+ Google reviews · First fitting free & no-obligation

Off-the-rack trousers are a compromise between a waist, a rise and an inseam that rarely all belong to the same man. Cut to measure, the waist sits without a belt cinching it, the rise is comfortable through a long day, and the break at the shoe is your call: full, half or none.

Flat-front or pleated, side adjusters or belt loops, cuffed or plain. Order them to complete a suit, or as separates to pair with an odd jacket and stretch a wardrobe further.

The finishing
№ I

Flat-front or pleated

Clean and modern, or a single pleat for room and an old-world drape.

№ II

Cut to your rise

Where the waistband actually sits. It is the difference between comfortable and fighting your trousers all day.

№ III

Your break

Full, half or none at the shoe; cuffed or plain hems, shown on you before we finish.

№ IV

Side adjusters

Buttoned side tabs instead of a belt where you want a cleaner line.

Year-round worsteds, cosy flannels, cotton chinos and summer linens, cut as separates or to match a jacket, all from the same cloth library. Explore the cloth library →

Common questions

Good to know.

Straight answers
Why order custom trousers instead of buying off the rack?

Off-the-rack trousers compromise between a waist, a rise and an inseam that rarely belong to the same man. Cut to measure, the waist sits without cinching, the rise is comfortable all day, and the break at the shoe is your call.

Flat-front or pleated trousers?

Flat-front reads clean and modern; a single pleat adds room and an old-world drape. It depends on your build and how you'll wear them. I'll show you both on you before we finish.

Can you make trousers to match a jacket I already own?

Often, yes. Bring the jacket and I'll match cloth as closely as the mills allow, or cut odd trousers in grey to pair with it. Some matches hold up; some don't, and I'll tell you which.

What break should my trousers have?

Full, half or none: where the hem meets the shoe. It's a matter of taste and height; I finish the hem on you at the final fitting so it falls exactly the way you like.
