As a variation on our normal cotton herringbone stock we are very pleased to be able to offer a limited line of 100% wool trousers. This is a beautiful soft, supple weave and not at all itchy.
These traditional trousers are cut using authentic patterns and are made from a heavyweight cotton herringbone which has a lightly brushed finish. They are finished with a strap and buckle at the back along with braces buttons. The fly is fully buttoned and there are deep side pockets.
They are best worn with our button braces as they should sit higher on the body than the modern position which is lower towards the hips.
The fit is generous so if in doubt buy a size smaller. As a guide, we recommend taking a measurement around your navel (high waist). Take up to 4in off this measurement and buy accordingly. With the smaller sizes (28in-34in) we advise reducing by only 2in.
Made in England
Measurements: Inside leg measurements unfinished at 37in to allow for turn-ups.
Sizes: 26in - 54in waist
