Brown Pants for Men

Brown pants for men are a warm, easy alternative to navy and grey. They look rich in the evening and relaxed at the weekend.

Shades. Coffee, mid brown and dark brown, plus lighter browns and taupe, in cotton stretch chinos with satin, dobby and structure weaves, cotton linen, and a brown poly-viscose formal pant.

Fit. Most are tapered: slim through the thigh and narrowing to the ankle. We also have skinny, Drift (our straight fit) and Comfort (straight with more room). Alterations are free at every Basics Life store, so the length can be finished to suit your shoes.

How to wear them. Brown trousers go with white, light blue, cream, olive and pink shirts. Brown or tan leather shoes are the natural match; white sneakers work for weekends.
