Classic black trousers from Yohji Yamamoto, cut sharp and straight legged in a technical wool/polyester blend face fabric that feels dry, textured, and hard wearing. It features a contrasting bold red stripe down the side of the legs that has an amazing darkening sheen as one moves around in them. This pair of pants illustrates Yohji's playfulness within the confines of menswear conventions, juxtaposing cavernous utilitarian J-pockets with a tuxedo stripe detail and placing the piece in an interestingly ambiguous space between the formal and the casual.
