Gardener Trousers | Green Herringbone Cotton
£145.00
A loose, wide-leg trouser with a high, pleated waist. The front pleats double as belt loops, a small detail that took a lot of fitting to get right. Two side pockets and one back pocket. Made in herringbone cotton, a durable and breathable, natural fibre woven in a V-shaped diagonal pattern for extra texture, that’s easy to care for and softens with wear.
Redwan wanted one trouser the shop could remake over and over: comfortable, modest, roomy enough to move in. The first attempt was a drop-crotch shalwar. It didn’t catch on.
The real design came later, after Redwan met a gardener at the local Mosque wearing a pair of trousers he’d owned for thirty years, bought at a car-boot sale and never replaced. Redwan asked if he could copy them. The gardener agreed, on the condition Redwan make him a couple of new pairs in return.
A neighbour, a pattern cutter, took six months to draft it. From there, our tailor Kamali took over in his workshop in Bow, and has been making it ever since. We’ve made close to a thousand pairs in this cut.
Cotton is a durable, natural, breathable fibre that holds up well to everyday wear. It’s low-maintenance, doesn’t need special handling, and gets softer the more it’s washed. Herringbone is a variation of twill, woven in a V-shaped pattern that gives the fabric a bit more visual texture.
Loose, wide-leg fit | High-waisted (women) or natural waist (men) | Pleated front, pleats double as belt loops | Two side pockets, one back pocket | Adjustable button side tabs
