Description

Entirely machine-stitched men’s trousers made of medium-weight black cassimere. Wide fall. Well-executed handmade buttonholes. Flimsy muslin facings around the waist and crotch area. Double-arched back waistline without a gusset or strap. 6 braces buttons. Wide angled slit pockets; no watch pocket. Straight hem. No evidence of foot straps. The back of the leg above the hem is faced. Appears to be ready-to-wear or from a less-gifted tailor
