Cut from the body outward

Cut from the body outward

Japanese pattern cutting starts from the cloth and the movement, not from a fitted block that then gets loosened. The rise drops, the seat carries volume, and the leg is drafted to fall instead of tracing the thigh.

The practical result is range. These sit comfortably cross-legged, on a bike, or squatting, where a fitted Western trouser fights you.

Where the shape comes from

The dropped rise and the wide leg trace back to hakama pants, the pleated trousers worn under a haori jacket in traditional Japanese dress, and to the loose work trousers still standard on Japanese building sites. The line survived because it works.

Nobody here is selling a martial arts costume. This is everyday wear, and the same silhouette now spans a wide range of Japanese design, from tailoring to streetwear.

The named cuts

The core of the range is ten named cuts: Sekino, Kotona, Kireina, Miyabi, Shinbo, Gelyu, Pokku, Sokai, Igen and Yasumi. Garment length at size M runs 90 cm on the Sekino to 103 cm on the Yasumi, and the Kotona is cropped with a 72 cm cuff and a 120 cm hip.

Fabrics cover 100% cotton, 100% linen, a 65% cotton linen blend, an 80% cotton denim and 100% premium cotton corduroy. Waist at size M runs 68 cm to 86.7 cm. Sizes reach XS to 5XL, among the deepest in the store. Each carries a full size chart with a recommended height band. Wash cold, line dry.

Linen and corduroy

For pure linen, the Igen and Yasumi are 100% linen, and the Miyabi is the corduroy cut. All three are cut wide through the leg.

How to size Japanese pants

Read the outside length and the hip, not only the waist. Elastic, drawstring and tie waists have a working range, and the one-size pairs cover roughly 62 to 115 cm at the waist, but the hip and length are fixed. Every product page lists the outside length rather than an inseam, so measure a pair you already like from waistband to hem and compare.

How long are they?

Garment length at size M runs 90 cm on the Sekino to 103 cm on the Yasumi. The Kotona is deliberately cropped above the ankle.
