I don’t know that anyone has said that there are no navy trousers that will ever look good. Just that many navy worsted wool trousers are not recommended because they look like they were supposed to belong with a suit. I wear navy cotton chinos and cotton/linen trousers frequently, especially to more casual outings like parties or out to dinner, I just wouldn’t wear wool trousers because (imho) they look like they belong to a suit and look odd as separates. There are certain fabrics and even patterns that lean more towards an odd trouser look and those are often recommended as odd trousers. I don’t buy worsted wool navy trousers because they would never make my “best outfits” and would never get worn.

Also, I don’t have it in the budget right now but I would love to try to put together a look with a black linen coat, white or off-white trousers or even jeans, and black boots for a party. I think it would stand out but still look good

I like how you framed this.

Only time I've heard of them doing them is via a request in MTO, unsure if they would sell well in OTR compared to other shirts

Wanna throw out praise for the Drago navy jacket with light blue windowpane. It's very lightweight, has great texture, and is rather professional/reserved in its overall appearance. In desperate need of more navy jackets and with the current sale this was nearly $200 cheaper than the E Thomas!

Anyone else own this one? Any comments on the natural stretch of the weave?

I've only worn contemporary in Neo fit. I'm thinking of going up a size and going slim for the regular fit. Any advice?

Hey Gents, Quick favor to ask here: Did anyone buy the Tan Angelico Solaro High-Rise Contemporary Trousers (single-pleat, extended waistband) in the last 12 months? I believe they're SS19, but don't quote me on that.

I bought a pair at the end of last year, but put them away until recently (when I thought you getting them properly hemmed) and I noticed that the rise was unusually short (10.7" or so). I have the same fit model in the FW19 Flannel--but that measures 11.5" which seems in-line with what I was expecting from the tan pair.

Did I just get a bad pair, or did the High-Rise Single Pleat Contemporary Trouser change by .8" over a season (SS19-FW19)?

Thanks for the help!

Look great. Did you find the fit extra full? My 32 slims were extremely full. Had to have a lot taken out from hem to waist.

Has the zipper length on S&M trousers been an issue? I got 2 pairs of Fresco’s and the zippers look like they came from women’s low-rise jeans.

Will let @Betelgeuse confirm but I also have these and found the brown to be heavily muted. In most lights (including in the above pic), reads more grey/charcoal with some brown undertones.Could prove to be quite useful as I have seen A play around with charcoal/darker trousers to good effect. In terms of fit I found these to be a bit larger all around (less than green seersucker however). I usually go up a size and take in the waist and always need more room in the hips/thighs so no complaints here. Just my observations.

This. The brown is very muted that it may look like dark gray and maybe charcoal but they look very nice.

Thanks! Fuller than the regular 35 yes, which I really appreciate, I found more space at the thighs and especially the knees, trousers no longer got stucked with my socks at the calves. I do feel that also the 35 contemporary had a few extra space and I love it.

Nope, my tailor helped me to crease them.
