  
Woven in Italy, this pure tropical wool is extremely soft and lightweight. It's composed of worsted yarn that's combed flat before weaving, ensuring that all of the fibers run in the same direction and giving the trouser a smooth finish and fine hand. A looser weaving technique allows for excellent ventilation and air flow throughout the garment. This "Midnight Blue" color is a super-dark Navy that's just a few shades off of black. It's a very sleek and versatile piece.
The merino wool has a soft hand and solid drape. It's composed of worsted yarn that's combed flat before weaving, ensuring that all of the fibers run in the same direction and giving the trouser a smooth finish. Merino is excellent at regulating body temperature and keeps the wearer warm without overheating. We really love the versatility of these trousers. On one hand, they can be a straight-ahead conservative dress trousers. But the slightly thicker merino texture and the unexpected color makes these a great casual piece. We'd certainly wear them with Alden boots and tartan flannel shirt.
Epaulet trousers are a true labor of love. As with every item in our in-house collection, they have excellent materials, meticulous craftsmanship, fair pricing, and a well-executed fit. Each pair is hand-assembled with old school construction at a venerable trouser house in New York City. It's hard to find a good pant and it's difficult to make one - but our production house is more than up to the task. We're confident that these will be some of the best trousers you will ever own.
The "Rudy" is similar to the "Walt" fit, but with more room in the thigh and seat. Typically, if you've got bigger thighs, then you have to choose between (1) pants that are too slim to be comfortable or (2) trousers with wide legs and large leg openings that are too baggy and completely swallow your shoes. The Rudy fit strikes the perfect balance with a slim waist, a slightly relaxed thigh and seat, and an elegant, graduated taper to a slim leg opening. If you're into things like cycling, competitive rowing, or crossfit - and you have a hard time finding a trouser that's both comfortable and flattering - then these are the cut for you.
Like the "Walt", the medium rise is comfortable to wear and keeps your shirt tucked in if you want it tucked. They're plain front with no pleats, and front-lined to the knee. They're beautifully constructed with an inner waist curtain, taped & finished seams, and a split back waistband. These pants are meant to be worn for years, and the split waistband allows your tailor to perfectly take in or let out the waist up to 1.5". The inseam is finished at a plain-bottom 34", but this can be let out another inch if you need it.
