#198 American Bedford 5 Pocket - Slate Blue

Note: we recommend sizing up one on these, as they sew up a bit on the smaller side.

The Bedford corduroy is a distinct fabric. It's a cousin of the traditional corduroy, but with a much more subtle structure. It's defined by a vertical rib on the surface that's more subtle than a traditional corduroy. The visual line is unique but not overbearing. This fabric was traditionally used for hard wearing garments such as uniforms and workwear. That character shines through in this version, but is tempered by quality yarns and spot on finishing. It starts with a 9 ounce base weight - substantial but usable all year. The density the Bedford style comes through instantly. These feel tough, but quality yarn and a sanded finish nicely layer in supple comfort. These are pants you can wear hard with ease. The colors match the timeless roots of this style. The only way to make this fabric better is treating it to our timeless 5 pocket style and offering them at one of our best values yet. Enjoy.
