The Original Performance Structure Pants

The De Originale Performance Structure Pants in blue are cotton trousers with a woven, textured surface and a slim cut, made for men who want something sharper than a plain chino without losing the give of stretch. The elastane in the weave means they move with your legs when you sit, drive or walk through a long day.

Most smart trousers force a trade: look tidy or feel comfortable. These keep the textured, structured face that reads as dressed up, while the cotton-elastane blend keeps them easy to wear from a morning meeting to dinner. A zip and button fastening at the front keeps the waistband clean under a shirt.

Wear them with a tucked-in Oxford shirt and leather shoes for the office, or with a plain tee and trainers on the weekend.

Not for you if you want a relaxed or wide leg, since these sit close in a slim fit.
