Estimated 1930s, French-made cotton piqué stripe work trousers.
A special acquisition. Notably scarce deadstock. This deadstock piece has been given a single wash here at the shop.
CREPIER garments, favoured by collectors yet rarely encountered in the market, are not easy to come by. Jackets surface from time to time, but work trousers of this calibre remain uncommon.
These are constructed from cotton piqué, a staple of French workwear—a material many have sought.
The silhouette is characteristically straight, lending these trousers considerable versatility and an ease of pairing with most pieces in one's wardrobe.
The colour is a deep grey tone common to French workwear. The fine, restrained stripe provides a subtle accent without asserting itself unduly.
Being of a dark tonality, these pair equally well with pieces of stronger colour or with items in a similar register, each approach settling into coherent composition.
Alongside blue and indigo items—staples of French workwear—the affinity is inherent.
Patterned pieces can seem difficult to incorporate, yet these prove surprisingly workable. A pair such as this justifies its place in a considered wardrobe.
These lack belt loops; they are intended for suspension braces or cinched with the side tabs present.
The waistband is generous, accommodating those who prefer ease at the torso. Suspension buttons and adjustable tabs allow modest sizing flexibility, making a slightly roomier fit workable.
As deadstock, the condition is beyond reproach—a clean example for those seeking pieces free from considerable use.
A definitive work trouser of French tradition. Examples bearing the more recognised labels are scarce in circulation, and acquisition prices have risen considerably, making procurement increasingly difficult.
Equally suited to active wardrobe or collection, this is a piece of substance. Should you have been searching, the moment presents itself.
