The high-waisted double pleat trouser has its roots in the tailoring of the 1940s and 50s — a silhouette that fell out of fashion when slim cut everything took over and has been steadily returning as people remember what a well-cut trouser actually feels like on the body. The high waist lengthens the leg. The double pleat gives the hip room to move without adding bulk. The tapered ankle keeps the whole thing from reading as wide.

Cut in 100% cotton twill in british khaki, the Footage Made version applies tailoring principles to a piece built for daily wear. Side tab adjusters at the waist instead of a belt. Hidden hook-and-eye closure with internal button. Lined waistband and pockets. The after-dinner split back vent accommodates movement and a long day without breaking the clean line from the front.

Note • These pants start firm. Cotton twill is sturdy at first wear and will soften and relax with half an inch of give over time. Size accordingly.

Footage Made is our in-house ready-to-wear line. Tailored in small batches, built to solve specific problems of fit, fabric and function for the way people dress.

Footage Made grew out of twenty years of buying the best of what the world makes. Two decades of sourcing from heritage houses and emerging designers, understanding what separates a considered garment from a convenient one, and developing an eye for the details that determine how something wears over time.

After that long studying premium craft across labels and categories, making our own was the natural next step. Each piece begins with a problem worth solving — fit, fabric, function — developed for the way people actually dress in our part of the world, where seasons run long and the divide between formal and casual has always been narrow.

The work is tailored in small batches by design. Sustainable by practice, considered by necessity. Applying the principles of tailoring to ready-to-wear means fewer compromises on fit and construction, at a price point that reflects the work without the margin of a larger label.
