A Timeline To Suit Trousers

In the modern age of menswear, it’s a fact that most guys prioritize blazers, shirts and shoes over legwear, which unfortunately leaves us in a world where sagging butts and scrunched legs are predominant.

With age comes wisdom, so we’re walking you through the proper pants progression for taking your suit trousers to the top level.

Trousers in Your Teens

No longer a boy but not quite yet a man, you tend to buy trousers that are either too baggy or too skinny depending on premature influences like peer pressure, musical idols and cultural references.

Solution: The chances of you already owning a suit are slim so a simple trouser hem roll still gives you that rebel edge and relaxed air.

Trousers in Your Twenties

Due to low cash flow and a delay in growing up, you still haven’t evolved from your terrible teenage wardrobe. With a clear head, new diploma and fresh job, now is the time to make the details count.

Solution: Show your new employer you mean business by choosing modern slim-cut trousers that sit higher above the shoe. Forgo the standard stiff break and do a half break-this solves the length issue and brings you up to date for a twist on classic tailoring.

Trousers in Your Thirties

At this point, you’re dressing to impress as both work pressures and dating woes increase. Buying quality doesn’t always mean buying fit. Our suggestion? Opt for a pair of tailored pants that pack a punch.

Solution: A cropped suit trouser will give you a sharp leg up on your style competition and allows for dressing up or keeping things casual.

Trousers in Your Forties

Sadly by this time, most men have mastered the sleep-deprived art of giving up on proper pants. You prioritize comfort above everything and tend to buy shapeless pants that blend in with your now not so average body.

Solution: Pleated pants are the easiest way to balance out your weight and keep your style looking sharp and slim.

More than anything else in menswear, a suit is the one thing men can call their own. Give pants the proper attention they deserve and say a statement with your suit trousers.

Taking time to find the right suit pants will give you a leg up no matter where you are in life.
