Most pants don’t fit guys very well. And most designers suck at making them.
In the past, shopping for trousers had been an all day affair for me. I would try on 20 or 30 pairs of pants before I would make a decision because the fit had to be perfect.
I never understood why most women looked great in their dress pants and always had access to such flattering pant styles. Men on the other hand, not so much.
It seems we are in the middle of a paradigm shift, now that men are starting to care about their looks as much as women, especially with the advent of the metrosexual and mainstream gay culture.
First on the scene to rescue men from bad pants is this brilliant company out of New York known as Bonobos.
Bonobos is known for awesome fitting pants; they have it down to a science. I’ve ordered several pairs and absolutely pleased with everything about these pants.
In fact, my first day at work wearing them, one of the guys said to me, “Those are nice tailored pants!” I said, “They weren’t tailored, they just fit better!”
Why The Amazing Fit
Bonobos pants fit well for a few reasons:
- Waist is curved correcting problem of extra material around your waist; enhances the shape of your butt
- Thigh is not too baggy and not too tight
- Finish features a slight flare also known as a bootcut (my favorite feature)
Finding men’s dress pants with a flare or bootcut is about near impossible; no one really makes them. Yet, the style tends to be so flattering on men, especially those with an athletic build or even a little pear shape.
The other thing I love is their pockets. The pant pockets are lined with colorful patterns, and I’m always getting compliments on my pockets.
Reasons to Buy
Aside from the awesome fit, here are some other reasons to get your hands on a pair of trousers from Bonobos:
