Black Skirt Pants for Men, Japanese One Leg Wrap

These black skirt pants are wide trousers with a wrap panel that crosses over one leg, so one side reads as a skirt and the other as pants. Half and half. A long belt strap holds the panel and hangs free. When you walk, the two halves move in different rhythms.

The shape comes from Japanese designers who have spent decades playing with the line between skirt and trouser, and it works because the eye never settles: look from the left and you see a full skirt, look from the right and you see a plain wide pant, walk past and both halves move in different rhythms. Half and half. Never boring.

Size

One size. The drawstring waist adjusts from 66 to 115 cm. The length is 90 cm with a 44 cm rise. The hip measures 160 cm, the thigh 94 cm and the hem 50 cm.

Fabric and care

80% polyester and 20% cotton. It drapes well and keeps the panel crisp.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, or hand wash cold. Hang to dry by the waistband so the panels fall straight.

How to wear them

Wear the strap loose so it swings. A black tee or a long shirt is enough on top. Boots suit the long leg. Keep jewellery minimal.

Pairs well with the cotton japanese kimono jacket and the embroidered dragon bomber jacket. Also in the same family: the japanese wide leg pants with belt.

Our guide to Japanese streetwear pants shows how the shapes fit together. Most of these one-size cuts share the same 80% polyester and 20% cotton cloth, so they mix easily in one wardrobe.
