Trousers that turn dress codes into opportunities.
A tailored-cut trouser printed with a hand-drawn geometric gradient — sharp enough for a smart-casual brief, loud enough to actually be remembered. Built on a stretch-twill that holds the crease but moves with you. A matching cardigan is available in the same listing — pair them or wear them apart.
What sets the Soho Gradient apart:
- Reactive-dye print — colours stay rich, edges stay clean
- Five print options + one matching knit cardigan (select above)
- Hidden side adjusters on the trousers — micro-fit your waist without a belt
- Crease-front holds through a full day standing or sitting
- Stretch-twill with 4% elastane — tailored look, joggers comfort
The fit
Trousers: tailored slim · Mid-rise · Tapered ankle
Cardigan: regular relaxed · True to size
FAQ
Can I dress them down? — Yes — white tee and a clean trainer flips the formality.

How to Measure Yourself
For the most accurate fit, use a soft tape measure and wear well-fitting underwear. Stand naturally — don't suck in or stretch up.
- Bust / Chest: Measure around the fullest part, tape parallel to the floor.
- Waist: Measure around your natural waist — the narrowest point, usually about 2.5 cm (1") above your belly button.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips, usually 18-20 cm (7-8") below your waist.
- Inseam (for trousers): Measure from your crotch to your ankle bone, along the inside of your leg.
