Largeot velvet with tie straps
Corporate trousers, half-balloon shape, wide at the thighs and narrowed at the ankles, come from a need for ease and functionality. This "high waist" version, called with pulls, does not have belt loops but buttons to attach the braided suspenders. At the back a tightening tab allows you to adjust the size. The moleskin fabric ensures comfort and resistance. The cord velvet (300 stripes / m) ensures warmth and robustness. It is in this fabric with large ribs, originally from England, that the first largeot was designed by Adolphe Lafont in 1896. French manufacture (Digoin, Burgundy). Available in 3 colors corresponding to the guilds of Compagnons: Black for carpenters and roofers, Brown for cabinetmakers and Hazelnut for joiners. A little stiff when new, it will quickly soften to become fluid, like a real second skin.
