But no less awesome.

I have a few pair in work: 2 are being made flat front, western pocket and jean hemmed (will actually wear them on a horse); 2 pair are flat front with off set pockets, D rings and plain bottom; and a pair that is single pleated with a cuff

On a slightly related note, can anyone tell me a little about the characteristics of cavalry twill? Warmth, durability, ability to hold a crease, etc...

thanks.

Does anybody have suggestions as to where one can find cavalry twill trousers? Ben Silver and O'Connell's are the top hits on Google, which is understandable, but can anybody recommend a retailer in New York City, Boston, or Princeton who may carry pairs that one could try on in the store?

Call Paul Stuart. It's the kind of trouser they certainly used to carry when they were more Ivy League.

Also, the Andover Shop in Cambridge MA
