This autumn, it's all about trading in the chinos for corduroys. I remember sporting corduroys back in the school days (in the late 90s) yet they weren't too flattering. The reason for that is very simple. These specific type of pants weren't as popular as they are now. Times have changed - fashions change - and more men are making an effort into what their wardrobe looks like every season. The years have welcomed a more mature look for men who actually want to look like men without compromising the casual yet sophisticated nature.
A big difference into what makes this corduroy trend a must grab is that technology in design has obviously changed. The fitting and cut has evolved significantly over time in a more favorable way. The one thing that has always been true is the comfort of a corduroy.
