HOT ! Bedford Cord Five Pocket Pants - Off White

In our very early Wythe development, we knew we wanted to have a core bedford cord program - we had found so many vintage garments worn by cattlemen and ranchers in the 40s and 50s and the fabric spoke to us in a way that just felt right. These vintage pants were so broken in, so soft, yet still managed to feel bulletproof. We loved how it broke in and new this was going to be a staple of ours. And while the five-pocket pattern from Wythe has gone through many different stages of fit and fabrication, we\'ve now settled on a level of consistency across our different fabrics that we\'re very happy with.

This particular bedford cord is just what we were looking for in a workwear staple. It\'s woven on vintage selvedge loom by a Japanese mill that specializes in weaving this fabric, exactly like it used to be made in the 40s and 50s. It\'s one of the only fabrics this mill produces.

One of the amazing things about bedford cord is how hard wearing it is on the outside, but how soft and stretchy it is on the inside. It breaks in and molds to your body like raw denim, and is easy to see why this was a favored fabric for workwear.
