new york trousers









walking around lower east side yesterday evening i took a look at reedspace.
if you don't know it, reedspace is a place i would definitely recommend you visit.
it's part art gallery, part trainer shop, clothes shop, it sells magazines, books,
collectable vinyl, jewellery... it's also staffed by the friendliest coolest cats in the city.

i bought these trousers while i was there.
i know they don't look that special but it's the details and the quality.







you have to feel the material
the fabric is an incredibly soft double-faced brushed cotton twill from japan.
( ok, i just cribbed that from their website )








this is the rear view








note the mid-thigh rear utility pocket








and the purple reinforced cuffs
these round the houses are really well made.
they are a collaboration between staple and epaulet.

maybe i'll wear them tomorrow when i meet mark whitfield ?
