In Short,

These greige trousers stand out with their tailored cut and wide waistband with an off-center closure, a nod to 1970s style. The heavy, weather-resistant flannel, 5 cm cuff, and sharp front crease add weight and structure for a flawless drape. Side adjusters ensure a perfect fit that lasts all day.

The Fabric

The Mill

Vitale Barberis Canonico is a world-renowned Italian mill, celebrated in tailoring circles for its exceptional fabric quality and variety. Founded in Biella, in the heart of Piedmont, the house upholds a centuries-old textile tradition, blending innovation with artisanal craftsmanship. VBC fabrics are masterworks of weaving — their clean drape and lasting durability make them a trusted choice for those who value fine cloth.

The Fabric

These trousers are crafted from 100% wool flannel, prized for its soft hand and natural warmth. Flannel is easily recognized by its slightly brushed surface, achieved through a delicate finishing process that enhances comfort and flexibility. This treatment gives the fabric a fluid, enveloping drape while maintaining excellent structure. Less formal than traditional worsted wool yet more refined than casual weaves, flannel is a perfect choice for fall and winter — warm, breathable, and effortlessly stylish.

The Color

Greige is a subtle, natural shade that sits between beige and gray, reminiscent of undyed raw fibers. Its soft, luminous tone pairs effortlessly with a wide range of colors in the modern wardrobe, from muted neutrals to stronger contrasts. It brings understated elegance while highlighting the texture of the flannel, striking a balance between timelessness and contemporary appeal.

Optional features

The Cut

The single outward-facing pleat is a discreet yet functional detail that adds comfort and ease to the trousers. It gently widens the upper leg, offering greater freedom of movement while preserving a clean, refined silhouette. This type of pleat is ideal for men seeking comfort without compromising on style.

The Waistband

The 6 cm wide waistband is a distinctive feature inspired by vintage tailoring. Its off-center double-button closure adds character and subtly defines the waistline. Side adjusters allow for a custom fit without the need for a belt.

Belt with extended fastening tab

A 5 cm cuff at the hem adds weight and structure to the trousers, ensuring a flawless drape. This understated detail enhances the garment’s elegance and brings balance to the overall silhouette.

The Italian Pockets

The slanted Italian front pockets are a staple of classic tailoring. Their refined shape allows you to slide your hands in effortlessly while maintaining a sleek, uninterrupted line.
