Scope and content
Flat front slim leg trouser made from Tonik by Dormeuil, a three-ply mohair suiting fabric. The trousers fasten with a zip fly and an extended hook and bar tab at the waistband. They feature slanted front pockets and a single jetted back pocket on the right that is secured with a button and loop. The waistband features an adjustable channel that can be altered with a silver clasp that runs along a plastic track. The waistband is lined with cream nylon, the same fabric used for the pocket bags with matching cream binding finishing the seat. There is a small turn up on the trouser hems.
