Just needed to share this rather baggy trousers choice somewhere.

Bit of Japanese trouser talk here
I donāt wear cardboard trousers but if I did Ben Davis would be my choice. Sure beats the hell out of Dickies and Carhartt.
Are they going to be putting people on or are they just going to leave it at this guy pissing about in a car park?

Salman Agah made Ben Davis look cool, but it looks terrible on just about everyone else.

I had some black ones from slam bitd, 4 sizes too big so strictly relegated to school only use
Yeah they were. Gorilla cut trousers the worst fitting item of clothing I have ever owned.

To be fair, they werenāt meant to be āfittedā or ātailoredā. Theyāre ye olde work trousers arenāt they, just big rectangles of extremely hardwearing denim held together with rivets.
You made them look good by pairing them with an extremely expensive XLarge crew sweat, a Stussy Africa leather pendant and a visor, cocked to the side, and some Shelltoes or Vans Lampin.

They almost stand up on their own when new.
Year or 2 later they are perfect.
Yeah, absolutely. Around three decades and some ago, when I had a brief stint of wearing the cardboard trews, SF thrift store buys were the way to go - much cheapness and some other poor sucker had already chafed themselves stupid breaking them in.
