Fatigue Pants

It's no surprise I'm highlighting fatigue pants here as they've been showing up on the blog regularly for months now - from both Simon and myself. I feel like they are one of the best looking casual pants I could wear. I love the obvious military reference but with no big cargo pockets, they are much easier to mix into your daily wardrobe and get lots of wear from. Whether you pair them up with moccasins, boots or white bucks - as I plan doing regularly this spring - the fatigue pant is quite diverse and is well worth having on hand. The tough part can be finding a good pair however. Although they don't show up online, J.Crew apparently have a good offering and for the price it's probably thee easiest option. I have their fatigue shorts and am a big fan of those. I personally really like the Workaday version Engineered Garments have made this fall. The sateen twill was a nice fabric choice, but I wasn't in love with it until I saw the version pictured after the link. It was put through a single wash cycle with an unknown chemical to give the cotton a little bit more of a rough feeling. They came out perfectly and you can see them in action in our latest online issue, Fall Edits. Above you can see that Daiki is truly a fan of the pant as well - these are his choice outfits to pair up with his array of army green pants. There does seem to be a similar theme on top, but you can see the aesthetic and casual nature the pants lend themselves to quite nicely.

Can't beat the EG Workday version they are so true to military issue. I like to pair mine with Chuck
Taylor Addict's and a border tee (45rpm) or a Visvim border crew and a navy blazer. Comfy.

That sounds perfect Wayne - I like the sneaker choice with a full cut straight leg pant like that.

Im definitly a fan. I have two vintage army issue pairs myself, one made by army contractors California Girl Wear :) Those are super baggy, with zipper fly (talon) and rather insane rise. The other pair looks pretty much exactly like EGs in fit and details.

what a sad consumeristic cunt you are, i hope some day that when you grow up from under that little fairy land of vancourism that you shallowish from within that you may realise that your whole existance as a japanese pathetic porn idol is pointless. Hmmm,
