A classic menswear-inspired design, these trousers are made from a smooth drapey material with a fluid quality and pleats along the front. A relaxed fit cut to sit at hip-level, it has an ankle length, a mix of side and back pockets, a dropped crotch and they are completed with wide turn-ups at the hem.
A brand whose aesthetic has been so influential that it’s hard to remember what went before. But when COS launched in 2007 against a backdrop of fast, trend-led fashion, its focus on minimal pieces at accessible prices was a breakthrough moment. With a focus on style over trend, it heralded a new era for interesting, modern, considered design and changed our wardrobes for the better, forever.
