Gardener Trousers | Navy Irish Linen
£175.00
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 Irish linen, sourced from Belfast. Breathable and hypoallergenic, it softens with every wash and wears in rather than out.
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.
Our linen comes from Belfast. It’s a breathable fabric, well suited to warm weather, and hypoallergenic, so it works for sensitive skin. It softens the more it’s washed and worn, and resists creasing better than most natural fabrics.
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
