Khaki Heavy Cotton Twill Games Trousers
A pair of games trousers in heavy khaki cotton twill, cut as the counterpart to the Games Blazer so the two can be worn together as an informal suit. The shape looks back to mid-century trousers, with a high rise that sits just above the hip, a single pleat on each side and a full leg that narrows gently below the knee. Side adjusters, belt loops and a concealed fob pocket give them a practical, workwear character. They are made in Italy from cloth woven in Yorkshire and are intended for wear through the year, either with the matching jacket or on their own.

Di Sondrio Khaki Heavyweight Heirloom Chino
We chose a very heavy khaki cotton twill from Tessuti di Sondrio because it comes close to the colour, solid finish and dense hand of the Yorkshire twill in the original. We set single pleats, a zip fly, belt loops, side seam pockets, horn buttons and a button-through waist tab to follow the Drake's construction. Proper Cloth offers no side adjusters or concealed fob pocket in this design, so we kept belt loops alone and used an angled flap back pocket with a standard coin pocket instead.
A 100% cotton twill from Tessuti di Sondrio in Italy, woven from 3-ply yarns into a dense, smooth-faced cloth of about 535 g. It is a plain khaki solid with real weight and body, built to stand up to long, hard wear.
