Get your trousers right and the rest of your wardrobe falls into place. Here are the five cuts that cover almost every occasion — and when to reach for each.
1. The tailored trouser. Your sharpest option, for anything that leans formal. The Executive Trousers read polished without a full suit.
2. The everyday trouser. Smart enough for the office, easy enough for the weekend. The Mercer Trousers are the workhorse of the wardrobe.
3. The cargo. Structure with utility and ease. The Nomad Cargo dresses down a knit or shirt without looking sloppy.
4. The jogger. For downtime that still looks considered. The Active Joggers keep a clean straight-leg line.
5. The utility trouser. A relaxed, functional option for the weekend — The Venture Cargo adds room to move without losing the line.
Keep them in neutral tones and each one pairs with every top you own — which is the whole point.
