If you’re a new denim head, take it from us that you don’t have to wear your heavyweight raw selvedge denim jeans every day. You can have a day off, enjoy some comfort, and save the fades for another day. Japan’s EEL has a pair of pants for those free and easy days, that may even be the spark to a revolution of comfort in your wardrobe.

These aptly named ‘Contemporary Pants’ are made in Japan from a high density 63%/33% cotton/nylon fabric making them ideal in any season. The overall fit is loose throughout, starting with the roomy top block, elasticated waistband for comfort, and distinct lack of taper in the wide leg. But the shape is refined by a single downward pleat from the hidden front slash pockets all the way down to the hems, ensuring they’ll sit nicely above any footwear choice.
