After Drake’s · Autumn/Winter 2024
Ecru Heavy Cotton Twill Games Trousers
Drake's made these trousers to go with its Games Blazer, so the two can be worn together as a casual suit that sits somewhere between tailoring and workwear. The shape looks back to the middle of the last century, with a high rise that sits just above the hip, a full leg and single pleats, narrowing gently below the knee. Side adjusters, belt loops and a concealed fob pocket give it a practical character. They can be worn with the matching jacket or on their own through the year.

Single Pleated Di Sondrio Beige Stretch Cotton Chino
We chose a beige cotton twill from an Italian mill as the closest available match to the heavy ecru twill of the original, accepting a slightly darker shade and a small amount of stretch. We matched the single pleats, vertical side seam pockets, zip fly with button fastening, belt loops, light brown horn buttons and plain hem. Proper Cloth does not offer side adjusters alongside belt loops or a concealed rear fob pocket, so we used a button-through tab at the waist and a flap coin pocket instead.
A medium heavyweight cotton twill woven by Tessuti di Sondrio in northern Italy, with 2% elastane for some give. It is a plain beige with a smooth, firm hand and should keep its structure through regular wear.
