Description

The French Work Trouser by MotivMfg x Division Road is a high rise, single pleated pant with a roomy top block and thigh that tapers to a moderate hem and a clean break for a tailored, modern take on straight leg workwear trousers from the early 20th century. This trouser is produced from an exclusive fabric development between MotivMfg and the finest narrow shuttle looming denim mill in China. The 15 oz. Tailors Selvedge Denim uses a thicker yarn from 21 oz. weight denim and is low tension woven as a medium weight 2 x 1 twill to provide drape and flexibility in a heavy-duty fabric. With an undyed natural warp and grey weft, this denim will evolve beautifully in a reversed manner as the natural color darkens through wear and fades to charcoal. This 100% Cotton denim has a black selvedge line and contrasting weft that communicates its luxurious form and exclusive nature to style effortlessly from dress to casual situations. Paying homage to the originals with sophisticated finishing, this trouser is designed with a single knife pleat for optimal fit and drape. It is given a clean button front with large tacked belt loops that serve as vintage elements with modern refinement. The French Work Trouser is packed with superior bespoke and old-world detailing like slant front pockets, workwear-inspired patch back pockets, a darted back yoke, zigzag bartack reinforcements throughout, and custom cast riveted gunmetal buttons. MotivMfg has re-established a pattern-to-bespoke garment, one-roof workshop in Beijing with the ethos, process, techniques, and materials of Savile Row to produce historically informed garments in styles and production methods lost by the West. We are honored to partner with MotivMfg to offer exclusive collaborations for a new and timeless uniform for the Division Road Army.
