There is a matching jacket to create the perfect forties look suit, comfortable enough for summer expeditions or a full day at work.
This listing is for the trousers only.
*Please note: our 2024 run of the Gadabout items (including the new matching waistcoat) is very slightly different in shade to our previous 2023 run - worth bearing in mind if you already own a piece or pieces from the Gadabout line. The colour is still a beautiful cream linen and the difference is difficult to spot.
Please consult the size chart for measurements.
SIZING NOTE: The Gadabout trousers are high-waisted, so their cut may mean a tighter fit. For better accuracy when selecting your size, measure your waist’s circumference just below the navel. Should you fall between sizes, we recommend ordering the next size up. Measurements on our size chart are accurate to approximately a quarter inch.
Our first model, Tom (light blue shirt), is 5ft 9 and wears a pair of 30" trousers. Simon (dark blue shirt) is 6ft 1 and wears a pair of 32" trousers.
