Look Mom, no side seams! John Gluckow‘s wildly popular Netmaker’s Trouser, made in partnership with Japanese heritage-wear giant Warehouse, is back, this time featured in a ‘Used Wash’ so believable you’d think they came fresh out of the turn of the century steamer trunk up in grandpa’s attic – whiskers, honeycombs, and all. And this wouldn’t be the biggest stretch in the world seeing as this unique design is actually based on a super old pair of denim work pants.
Featuring some exceptional details like one-piece legs — leading to the aforementioned lack of outseams — to its single needle construction, these trews are clearly a feat of modern-day craftsmanship. But the fun doesn’t stop there. With reinforced hand pockets, large rear patch pockets, and 2 asymmetric front coin/watch pockets, the design is validated Americana with an avant-garde twist.
As for fit, you probably could have guessed but we’re looking at a high rise and a wide cut which means your legs are about to have a field day. Closed out with a variation on a Sweet-Orr tag ’round back and selvedge details throughout — go ahead — treat yourself to a pair of Japan-made 10-ouncers from some of the most influential names in vintage clothing, we can’t think of a safer piece to invest in.
Available for $385 from Clutch Cafe.
