Men's Japanese-Style Pants That Look Like a Skirt, in detail
These Japanese pants that look like skirt panels are pleated all the way round, mid-rise and cut very full in the leg. Standing still, they read as a long skirt. Take a step and the split legs show. The Japanese-style look comes from the cut: deep pleats and a split leg wide enough to hang like a skirt, the same line you see on our hakama pants.
They stop above the ankle. The black cloth has no stretch. Some people call these pleated skirt pants, others call them wide leg pants that look like a skirt, and both names fit what you get when the pleats open up as you walk. The movement is the point.
Fit and sizing
One size, with an elasticated waist. The cut is meant to be voluminous, so expect a lot of cloth around the hips and legs instead of a close fit. The size chart on this page lists the waist range, hip, rise, thigh, hem and length. Check two numbers before you order. Compare the waist range with your own waist, then compare the length with trousers you already wear, as these finish above the ankle. On a taller frame the hem lands higher up the shin. There is only one size to take.
Fabric and care
A polyester and cotton blend, 80% polyester. It feels smooth in the hand. Wash cold, by hand or by machine.
How to wear it
Let the pants carry the volume and keep the top half simple.
- A plain black tee, these pants and heavy black boots for an all-black look where the pleats do the talking.
- A white boxy shirt, untucked, with leather sandals.
- A grey knit and a short black jacket over the top, finished with chunky trainers so the hem sits clear of the shoe.
