  • I'm on the lookout for some gurkha-esque pants, pleated, side adjusters, cropped... think sprezzatura rather than colonial overlord.
    I like the look of these Reiss ones (€195) but anything else I can find similar is either very expensive made-to-measure (€300+) or worryingly cheap Etsy offerings (<€50 and I'm also wary of buying new clothing on Etsy). Any recommendations?

    Further context; I need to stop wearing jeans and hoodies to work and I want some nicely tailored trousers.

  • Would you be wearing it with loafers? To me those trousers are finished too high.

    I would recommend Pini Parma, I don't own any of their stuff but I'd think it would be the best bet for a similar price to Reiss.

    Personally I think you'd be better off spending a little more and going with a bricks and mortar place eg Anglo Italian as the service and fit will just be really good, which means you will wear the trousers more.

  • I would wear them with loafers alright or perhaps even sneakers for more casual days but I'm all for a bit of ankle cleavage.

    I'll check out Pini Parma and Anglo Italian, forgot to mention I'm in Dublin, Ireland so bricks and mortar London spots aren't the handiest but I wouldn't rule it out if I find the right solution!
