We offer most of our bottoms, like our denim jeans and chinos, in two refined fits—Slim and Democratic, with a Straight Fit joining the lineup in select styles. After countless hours of testing and tailoring, we think we’ve landed on a lineup of silhouettes that cover the spectrum of personal style, body type, and day-to-day functionality. Here’s how they compare.

From left to right: Slim fit, Democratic fit, Straight fit.

Slim Fit

More tapered from top to bottom, the Slim Fit is our trimmest cut. Designed with a medium rise and a narrower shape through the thigh, knee, and leg opening, it’s a modern, versatile fit that works just as well at the office as it does on the weekend.

Democratic Fit

The Democratic Fit offers ease through the seat and thigh with a gentle taper from the knee to the leg opening. It’s a great middle ground—roomeir than our Slim Fit, but with a more refined leg shape than our Straight Fit. If you’ve got an athletic build, spend time in the saddle, or just want a little more mobility without going full vintage, this one’s for you.

Straight Fit

Inspired by vintage cuts, the Straight Fit is both the newest silhouette in our selvedge lineup and our roomiest fit, offering the same ease through the seat and thigh as our Democratic Fit, but with a more open leg from knee to cuff and minimal taper. It’s an ideal choice if you’re after a laid-back, heritage-inspired profile with a bit of extra room to move.

Shared Features

All three fits share the same classic medium rise and are available in standard waist sizes with 32” and 34” inseam options. The waistband is shaped to sit comfortably against your back—no gapping or pulling—and the fit is dialed in to move with you, not against you.

A Guide to Corduroy: From Workwear to Everyday Staple

Few fabrics announce themselves quite like corduroy.

Its distinctive raised ribs bring depth to otherwise straightforward gear, while a soft pile offers an element of warmth and softness that only gets better as the years stack up. It’s sturdy, dimensional, and especially at home when cooler weather puts texture back into the daily rotation.That combination of qualities has kept corduroy relevant for generations.

But long before it became a ubiquitous fall staple, the fabric earned its reputation through a history of hard wear.

A Guide To Fall Fabrics

Waffle breathes. Flannel softens. Wool insulates. Sashiko brings texture and durability. Denim takes whatever you throw at it.

Their histories and constructions may be different, but the reason these fabrics have endured is largely the same: they just work.

And as cooler weather brings layers back into daily life, choosing the right materials can do most of the work for you.
