What to wear with distressed Wabash Pants?

[mdmarz]

What shirt/shoe combo would you wear with these pants?
I have these Fullcount's and just don't know how to make them click.
Thanks for the input.

This?

White t shirt or an ecru button-front shirt.

The pants already has stripes so you don’t want to clash it with any stripe/checkered shirts. Stick with solid colors and experiment. Think colors that look “dirty” like rust/orange shades of yellow.

Just might work,
Thanks

Too pristine for some of the guys here. Throw it through the woodchipper a few more times

 

[mdmarz]

many opinions on this board; a lot of good suggestions

On a more serious note, work boots like Red Wing Blacksmiths should go well with these pants. Also a white, old-timey work shirt.

 

[mdmarz]

Do like those boots!
Sounds good
Thanks and cheers

Choose a shirt in this style. Retro style shoes

With trousers like these, I would definitely avoid anything that turns the whole thing into a costume.
My thing would therefore be more of a
mix with more modern pieces. Sneakers, functional shirts, plain shirts, plain t-shirts, thick woollen jumpers. Simply combine everything you have and try it out.

No offence meant to the OP but I kind of can't believe we're telling people how to get dressed now.

What happened to just trying things and seeing what you like?

Respectfully disagree. Nothing wrong with asking for collective advice. It can cost lots of time and money seeking things out, and then trying them out.
PS - I would very likely never gotten the Silverman's N-1 if it wasn't for your advice!!! A very unique product.

This.

I would go for T-Shirts and plain jumpers without any (additional) frills. The pants are standing out, so any more distractions to the eye would simply be too much.

Fair points, well made.

@mdmarz , apologies. I clearly got out the wrong side of the bed this morning!

All cool, lively discussions make this board work, the pants may be a little too much out of my comfort zone, hopefully not one of "those" purchases.
enjoy the rest of the weekend and cheers!

That's my fear with prison striped trousers, which I adore but doubt I could ever wear.

really? I thought when it get faded like that it gets much easier to style with rather than a crisp brand new wabash
I'm waiting my pair to fade like that

 

[mdmarz]

That's a good point but with these pants the contrast fades are heavily demarcated with little transition from heavy fade to light fade to unfaded which is quite eye catching (for better or for worse,) so I think the general consensus here is to go with a neutral, solid color shirt.

 

[navetsea]

Sometime the fade is more exaggerated when photographed flat like that but actually look a lot more normal when worn as a 3d object
I tend to pair wabash with tan leather items, i think pairing it with another pieces of clothes in off white, black, olive or sage work
