ZIGGY CHEN | Coexistence of luxury and primal identity. Constructive form full-lined trousers
Digital Print Straight-Leg Trousers (Multi) / 0M2530514
ZIGGY CHEN signature “decadent beauty” and high-level textile craft converge in these commanding 2-tuck wide trousers. The canvas’s digital print evokes the season’s core inspiration — the slow flow of ink dispersing in water and the echoes of a weathered fresco’s remnants — rendered as a deep, ambiguous, abstract painting that carries the ghost of passing time.
This cotton-wool twill is subtly blended with metal fibers to give the fabric a peculiar shape-retention and irregular crinkle finish, allowing rough, earthy intensity and quiet luxury to cohabit in tension. Two deep waist darts form a voluminous wide-straight outline that resists collapse when walking, holding a sculpted, architectural contour at all times. The waistband is elasticated at the sides with belt loops for comfort and adjustability, and the full lining extends to the hem for a refined hand-feel. A singular pair that can anchor a look from skin to silhouette.
CHIAHUNG SU | Uneven tones born from dye and weave. Asymmetric artisan trousers
Hand Woven & Wide Pleated Trouser (Uneven Dark Grey) / AW25-MP31-TOD
These wide, two-tuck trousers represent CHIAHUNG SU’s devotion to indigenous Taiwanese dyeing traditions and patient hand-loom weaving, elevated into contemporary artisan fashion. Unlike uniform machine-woven linen, the cloth was hand-woven slowly on vintage looms — airy, dry, textured, and slightly raised under the fingers. Natural dyes were layered entirely in-house at their own atelier, yielding an organic, non-uniform dark grey that can read with hints of deep brown or muted green depending on light.
The silhouette takes cues from the billowing pleats of “Hakama”, relying on the cloth’s natural body and weight to draw a resolute A-line that swings deliberately with each step. Details speak to lineage and craft: Taiwanese coin-buttons reworked from the 1940s, an asymmetric arrangement of pleats placed along the right leg, and a full lining extended to the hem in heritage fabrics drawn from the designer’s antique archive. A rare pair shaped by stories, cloth, and time.
KLASICA | Soot-muted matte black. Artisan trousers obsessed with texture and aging
Cut off Bold Straight Trousers （Coal Black） / 25F-TRS-B14
Cut-off straight-leg trousers that merge the dignity of classic tailoring with KLASICA’s distinctive concept of *unfinished beauty*. The fabric uses premium wool in deep tones, engineered for excellent heat retention, with a garment-washed finish that expresses an aged, broken-in character like archival menswear. The strongest design feature is the intentionally cut-off hem—crafted to fray naturally over time, forming a decadent, rough individuality that becomes more striking with wear and movement, unlike conventional tailored pants.
The silhouette is a powerful, vertical-fall wide straight cut with extra room through the thighs, then dropping cleanly through the hem like an engineered cylinder line—modern, structural, yet not excessively dramatic. The waistband includes suspender buttons, enabling multiple styling directions: tightening loosely for drape-centric belted looks, or refining through classic suspender styling for intentional, purist tailoring balance. This item carries brand ideology from early fall to early spring without seasonal limitation.
Ann Demeulemeester | Pitch-black contrast. Grunge meets elegance in mode cargo pants
IBEN CARGO PANTS （Black） / 2520-M-TR24
These cargo pants symbolize the fusion of Ann Demeulemeester’s poetic roots (*poetic romanticism*) with the current seasonal theme (*modern utility*). The standout design language appears in the long, hanging straps at the waist and pockets, alongside the removable signature grosgrain ribbon with an antique-treated clasp. The straps sway in motion—expressing restraint and freedom at once, a recurring visual identity of the house. The fabric uses Italian-made high-density cotton with gentle structure, breathable toughness, and a subtle micro-sheen finish that keeps the silhouette functional, refined, and premium.
The silhouette is not ultra-wide, but an intentional relaxed straight fit with room through the thighs and a deeper rise—allowing the drawstring to sculpt the shape freely and produce an elegant drape when worn slightly lower. The calm black tone urbanizes the military vocabulary, while every detail—antique-processed metal fittings, pocket placements, the deep rise, and the side gusset balance—harmonizes to create a modern, expressive cargo in total mode poise.
Yohji Yamamoto POUR HOMME | Heavy in-seam draped pants with sculptural spiral silhouettes beyond wrinkled gabardine
Draped gabardine pants (Black) / HM-P14-101
The core allure of Yohji Yamamoto POUR HOMME draped pants—an A/W signature—has been reinforced this season with a heavier “army gabardine” interpretation. By intentionally oversizing the in-seam (inner-leg seam) fabric volume, surplus cloth falls naturally toward the center, forming a sculptural “spiral drape” that swings with every step like a piece of moving sculpture—true to the house’s philosophy of garments as kinetic art.
The material uses a durable, thick army gabardine—one weight class tougher than commonly seen, faithfully reviving vintage military twill texture with bold, raised, assertive weaves. Unlike standard wrinkled gabardine, this fabric holds stronger resilience, depth, and rigid tactile shape—supporting not only a long straight row of drape, but a more striking, architectural form. The waistband circumference is engineered to exceed 100 cm, tightened via the attached drawstring in a Thai pants–like cinched system, where gathered waist cloth amplifies and flows dramatically into a balloon-grade wide silhouette down to the hem.
Main details: extra-deep rise, side elastic at waist, cinchable drawstring waistband, suspender-button ready (depending on season variant), full-length lining, and tapered-minimal outer leg twill silhouette—where structure stays intact even while the fabric universe moves.
JULIUS | Wet-look Black & Lofted Equipment-Grade Mode Cargo with Adjustable Silhouette Freedom
12oz Denim Pants (Black) / 917PAM1
The legendary “Gas Mask Cargo Pants”—one of JULIUS’ most iconic achievements—returns this season with a wide, baggy update that reflects current trends. The defining feature is the oversized, rounded thigh pocket system, reminiscent of storage for a real gas mask, giving a tactical, equipment-like aesthetic that transcends ordinary pants design. The fabric is 12oz denim enhanced with a resin-based coating, presenting a muted luster, industrial texture, and deep “wet-look” black surface. With wear over time, the coating softens and develops subtle “aging”, allowing glimpses of the denim underneath for a unique, evolving character.
The silhouette is wide and baggy, where large pockets lower the visual center of gravity—ideal for sculpting a bold A-line when styled. Adjustable buttons and strap systems placed at the hem and behind the knees allow length and width tuning to reshape the silhouette. Crash (distressed) finishing adds a vintage-like character, while maintaining the refined, tough identity synonymous with JULIUS’ ethos.
JUSTIN GALL | Ultimate Functional Beauty. Mode Flare Cargo with Tar-Coated Elegy
Max Tar Cargo Trouser Black Denim (Black) / JGALL_RAWTAW25-22B
Based in Italy, JUSTIN GALL uses a artisanal production process where the designer personally applies near-handmade craftsmanship into each piece, delivering both “wearable art” and “ultimate functional beauty.” The defining identity of this item is the special “Tar coating” created using resin and wax, expressing organic depth, irregular shadows, and a dense, dripping-tar-like textural poetry.
The denim is stretch-blended, offering year-round comfortable wear with a surprisingly thin-yet-flexible profile despite its heavy visual mood. The silhouette features a slim fit around the hips and thighs, expanding dramatically into a flare cut toward the hem. However, adjustable hem buttons allow modification into a slim-straight silhouette, offering versatile functional expression. With structured pockets placed on the side, front, and knee areas, plus oversized back belt loops, this is a masterful cargo piece built with quiet intelligence and visual depth.
D.HYGEN | Master Craft from the Denim Holyland. Intricate Repair Work and Extra-Bold Stitching
Crust Damage Repair Embroidered Jacquard Wide Pants (Black) / ST107-0925A
D.HYGEN elevates crust-core punk patchwork aesthetics using master denim artisans in Japan’s denim heartland, :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}. The foundation fabric is Crust Jacquard Denim — a “woven recreation of wear, not printed,” built with jacquard structure to mimic hand-patching, fray, and heavy overstitch seams. Over this raised surface, artisans add real sashiko and hand distress techniques, layering “damage born from weave-texture” with “true thread relief from embroidery,” creating dramatic depth unique to every piece.
The denim includes elastane (polyurethane), so despite its rugged look, it delivers surprising comfort — no tight pulling at the knees, smooth bending, and a low-stress wearing experience. The pattern is a weighted wide straight-leg with a deep rise. The leg design subtly twists outward below the knee, a calculated structural cut that keeps bold volume, especially when draped over boots. Extra-thick overlock stitch uses size #0 ultra-heavy thread, expressing the brand’s signature mode-tension detail philosophy.
Embraces 3-season usage (excluding peak summer heat), with strong shape, airflow balance, and highly durable detailing — including exaggerated thigh pockets, crafted welt edges, and custom bungee adjustable finishing inside the waist. Heavy back belt loops (oversized tooling proportions), optional suspender buttons, and coal-black matte depth complete a pair that anchors whole-look styling from fall into winter. This is a structural denim poem built with artisanship, calculated distress, and monumental stitching detail.
DEVOA | Rare Camel Fiber Comfort. Anatomical, Baggy, Cropped Pants
Cropped Pants Camel (Fade Black) / PTI-SCBC
The :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} Crafted from rare camel fiber developed at the heritage textile house, :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}, these luxurious, cropped baggy pants reflect years of brand research in anatomical wearing-comfort. Camel, a premium animal fiber, delivers exceptional insulation — roughly twice the thermal efficiency of standard wool while feeling incredibly lightweight, matching the softness and glide of cashmere.
Fade Black is achieved by overlaying black dye onto the natural camel tone, creating subtle depth like in vintage faded matte black garments. The design features a clean, wide drop from the waist to hem while articulated knee tucks form delicate relief-wrinkles that move as you walk. Structural spiraling seams trace the leg in a gentle twist to prevent unwanted tug and enable smooth knee-bending. An elasticized waistband and belt loops support easy, everyday wear without sacrificing artisan minimal-contrast mode aesthetics.
A versatile pair that bridges casual and luxury in a durable silhouette for fall through winter, built from historically-sourced artisan sewing choices, deep rises, and modern ergonomic balance.
CROMAGNON | Traditional British Shetland Wool. Cylindrical Column Fit Shadow Check
Cropped Pants Shetland Wool Check (Black Check) / CP-BSWCP
These cropped-length pants from :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} reinterpret foundational pattern work through a primitive, original artisan approach. The core material is traditional British Shetland wool in a classic check produced in the Bishu region of Japan. Grown from sheep bred in severe cold, the wool is warm, resilient against pilling, durable, and uniquely crisp with a surprisingly lightweight feel thanks to its naturally insulating fiber structure.
The silhouette is engineered with 3D volume and a column-like cylindrical fit that avoids lateral spread. Articulated patterning supports smooth movement, limiting the area of contact on skin for comfort. Designed for everyday practicality, it includes elastic and drawstring easy-pants construction. At the lower knee to hem, a layered design shifts into soft cotton fabric to add subtle accent at the ankle. The full lining uses advanced static-control fabrics by Teijin, ensuring reduced static buildup for higher comfort and wearability through the seasons.
A versatile piece crafted to balance heritage materials with ergonomic everyday performance for fall through winter and beyond, holding a structured, iconic yet minimal sensibility.
The Viridi-anne | Transformable hems. The “Balloon Silhouette” Inspired by Peach-Skin
Brushed Cotton Twill Baggy Pants / VI-3908-04
Wide pants carrying a rough, wild mood rooted in military and workwear design. The brushed surface uses stretch cotton-twill, engineered through artisanal cloth-making. A flocked, tactile “peach-skin” finish softly suppresses light reflection, delivering a deep matte tone akin to suede-like softness. The wide-baggy base uses anatomical darts at the knees for 3D shaping, ensuring surprising mobility despite its bold volume. The hems are clean-finished (cut-off possibility implied by design intent), welcoming gradual natural aging through wear.
The core appeal lies at the hems. Closing the hem buttons or tightening the drawstring shifts the silhouette from a strong wide-straight drop into a sharply-defined balloon silhouette that halts at the ankle. Side waist-adjuster buckles replace the need for a belt, keeping the waistline tidy. Highly versatile, this piece supports pairing with bulky boots or sleek sneakers, evolving with your styling from autumn through winter and beyond.
Maison MIHARA YASUHIRO | Unique decorations hidden in a vintage mood. Wide sweatpants with a deeply worn-in texture
Embellished Bleached Pants / A15PT563
Wide sweatpants that express the renewed Y2K (2000s) fashion mood with designer Mihara’s signature witty interpretation. The greatest feature of this piece is the combination of two opposing elements: “Bleached (bleach wash)” and “Embellished (decorative adornments).” A hard bleaching process is applied to the base texturing, recreating uneven patterns resembling tie-dye or distant clouds, giving a deconstructed, time-worn vintage atmosphere. Over this, rhinestones (hot-fix embellishments) and studs — inspired by the idea of child-placed decorations — are scattered throughout. The sparkling ornaments sway with every step, creating a strong contrast against the rough, industrial-like bleaching treatment.
The silhouette follows the brand’s signature wide-fit design — deep rise with generous room at the thighs — falling straight down with the fabric’s weight, emphasizing a clean vertical line while keeping a relaxed shape. The material uses heavyweight cotton with a thick, dry touch. Due to the hand-applied bleaching process, each individual pair carries slight variation in the fade pattern and placement, allowing the enjoyment of a one-of-a-kind garment with long-term character aging.
KAMIYA | Fusion of military and streetwear. 2WAY wide silhouette with adjustable, tapered hem
Sun-Faded Corduroy Fatigue Pants / G15PT034
Corduroy pants that express the “new-vintage” style pursued by designer Koji Kamiya, using the iconic textile of the fall/winter season. The key theme of this item is “Sun-Faded (sun fade / UV aging).” It recreates the uneven discoloration and fading that appears when garments are left under strong sunlight for many years, expressed here through an artisan-level fading process. The fabric uses heavy-waled corduroy; due to its intense fading treatment, the fibers lose stiffness and take on a softly collapsed, relaxed hand-feel.
Available in 3 color variants shaped by the process: beige, khaki, and black. Strong uneven fade gradients around the seams and pockets form a gritty depth that brings out the brand’s street-grunge, rebellious character. The design base follows the classic military fatigue pants format, defined by a large L-shaped patch pocket at the front. The hem carries draw-cord adjusters that allow it to morph into a rounded balloon-like shape when pulled, making this a true 2WAY construction. The drape contour was calculated to layer cleanly over high-volume sneakers from the same brand, supporting modern styling.
TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION | Warmth that overturns winter norms. Transfer print that recreates even the wallet chain
Fleece Denim Print Wide Pants / 2526AW-PT-005
Fleece wide pants by TATA that express transfer-printed vintage denim as the brand's signature. The greatest feature of these pants lies in the ultimate piece of *trompe-l'oeil* illusion: “looks exactly like vintage denim, but is actually fleece.” The designer’s archived denim is captured and reproduced in high resolution by transfer print — including whisker fades, honeycomb creases, stitch reliefs, rivet rust, hardware aging, and even distressed holes. From several meters away, distinguishing it from real denim becomes nearly impossible.
The back side of the fabric adopts a soft brushed fleece, delivering “blanket-level warmth” even in cold seasons when denim normally turns icy, along with stretch performance greater than typical sweatpants. It performs effortlessly as travel wear, movement wear, long-haul flights, and extended transit hours. The silhouette follows a trend-driven wide structure that drops cleanly from waist to hem without any rigidity. Because the cloth has no denim stiffness, walking motion generates fluid drape contour — producing a beautiful contradiction: “harsh denim visual, gentle movement.” The unreal-denim wallet chain print becomes a subtle accent. For practicality, real usable pockets are placed carefully and unobtrusively, making this a playful masterpiece built on unexpected textile deception.
