The double pleat is the mid-century trouser in one detail. It puts volume where a man moves — through the hips and thigh — and lets the leg fall from there, which is why it sat on tailoring and workwear alike from the 1930s through the 1950s. Wearmasters, the reproduction label of Tokyo’s Attractions designed by Hiroshi “Hossy” Watatani, cuts the Lot.893 on that pattern: two deep pleats each side of the fly, a full top block, and a leg that tapers cleanly to the hem. Worn high, it reads as the trouser in a period photograph; worn with a work shirt, it is simply a comfortable pair of pants.

The cloth is from Attractions’ Heritage Cotton line — fabrics developed not for how they look in the store but for how they age, taking creases, fades and the marks of wear into a patina of their own. Produced in small runs in Japan. Made in Japan.

Fit Notes: This model runs slightly large, and is only available in even-numbered sizes. Compared to most global American brands, we recommend sizing down one from your usual size for a clean, tailored fit — or taking your usual size for a slightly more relaxed profile. The inseam length is 74 cm (29.1") across all sizes. As always, we strongly recommend checking our size chart and comparing it with your best-fitting trousers to find the perfect fit.
