These Siza trousers are crafted from a pure tobacco-coloured yarn-dyed wool twill. Woven in Biella by one of Italy’s leading wool manufacturers, this very dark brown – almost black – wool twill captivates at first glance with its elegant, matt yarn-dyed effect. Soft and fine, it glides through the fingers with a lightness one wouldn’t expect from wool: it is THE truly crease-resistant fabric of this summer collection. Whether travelling or in the office, it breathes, holds its shape, and always returns to its original form. Hollington has chosen it for men seeking an alternative to black or navy – a third option, deep and distinctive. As a jacket, it becomes a second skin. As trousers, an everyday essential. And as a suit? What a man!
Behind its clean lines, the Siza trousers are a small masterpiece of textile design. Crafted in Portugal by a tailoring specialist with over four decades of expertise, they have all the makings of a true classic.
Their cut is a plunging cut i.e., higher behind than in front —a clever tailoring trick that avoids the dreaded “plumber’s smile” often seen in non-high-rise trousers. It also improves comfort and helps the trousers stay in place on the hips. The traditional construction makes it easy to alter the waist if needed.
The trousers close with a triple button fastening. This may seem tedious, but you can be sure that they will stay in place. Add to that six sturdy belt loops to keep your belt secure.
With a 19 cm leg opening, they’re easy to slip on while flattering the leg’s natural line. Areas prone to friction on the inner leg are reinforced with cotton binding, and the wool version is half-lined to the thigh for extra softness and structure.
A buttoned double-welt back pocket keeps your valuables safe, while the slanted side pockets are generously sized to fit larger hands. In total: three well-thought-out pockets to carry your essentials. In short, the Siza trousers combine the sharpness of a slim cut with the comfort of a traditional design.
