Bespoke trousers - extremely heavy vintage linen twill - a pictorial review

[Rudie]

Great trousers! I also would echo the suggestion to scoot the straps about 3 centimeters closer to the center.

This would be impractical as there wouldn't be left much space to adjust the waist. I'm perfectly content with them the way they are.

I don't find the buttoned cuffs gimmicky at all. It's so much easier to brush the cuffs when they can be opened.

BTW, when you take them to the cleaners make sure to show them the feature because if they are pressed as usual an impression of the button will show on the outside cuff. My cleaners hand presses them.

You need a matching jacket now from the same material.

Ahh, to each their own. Although I've always been told by tailors of the era that the adjuster straps were only decorative.

the adjuster straps were only decorative.

I wouldn't go that far but they are certainly nowhere near as effective as braces or belts.

Actually, I adjust the waist straps regularly, depending on my food and beverage intake. I never needed to make use of the suspender buttons, though. The trousers fit so well that the waist straps are everything I need for the perfect fit.
