- closure
- Zip fly with a single-button waistband and a smooth flat front.

- care
- Machine wash, do not bleach, hang to dry, iron with or without steam, do not soak.

- Press the front pleat into the crease as one continuous line.
- durability
- Dense woven blend should hold a pleat better than loose, soft cloths.
- styling
- Pair with fitted or tailored tops to balance the barrel volume.
- footwear
- Sleek flats, pointed-toe boots or sneakers suit the narrow ankle; with ankle boots the hem should sit lower than the boot top.
- uses

Side-seam hip pockets for hands and small everyday items
This high-rise barrel-leg pant has front pocket openings set into the side seams near the waistband on both hips. In product imagery, the openings sit discreetly at the hip, with the model shown slipping a hand partway into one pocket, so you can rest your hands or carry small essentials without disrupting the polished front.[2,3]

|---|---|---|
| Structured And Polished Sewn-Pleat Pant Fit: Barrel Leg, High Rise: Choose this if you want a structured, high-rise trouser with a relaxed barrel leg that tapers to an ankle-length hem, shaped by sewn waist pleats that create a pressed-crease look. The stretch dense fabric with a silky finish (68% cotton, 28% nylon, 4% spandex) has a smooth, matte drape, and the design includes a zip fly, side slant pockets, and trompe-l'oeil sewn flap pockets at the back, so the rear flaps are decorative rather than functional. It comes in sizes 2 to 16 in Black or Chocolate/Espresso; the measured size 6 has a 28.25 inch inseam and a 14.25 inch front rise.[1,2,3,4] | Stretch Dress Barrel Pant Fit: Barrel Leg, High Rise: Choose this if you want a high-rise, rounded barrel-leg dress pant in a finely woven fabric that combines softness and stretch (67% recycled-bottle polyester, 29% rayon, 4% spandex). It suits shoppers who like tailored details such as two sewn waist pleats, a pressed center crease, a removable adjustable matching belt, slit side-seam pockets, and a zip fly with hidden hook closure, with a full-length hem (29-inch inseam in size 4) and sizes 0 to 14 in Black or Slate Grey (Slate Grey starting at size 2). Note that the back pockets are sewn trompe-l'oeil piped pockets rather than functional ones.[5,6] | Elastic Waist Poplin Barrel Pant Fit: Barrel Leg, High Rise: Choose this if you want a loose, tapered barrel-leg pant with a super high rise and a gathered elastic waistband for easy comfort. It is made from lightweight, crisp 100% organic cotton poplin with sewn waist pleats, a zip fly, side slant pockets, and slit piped back pockets; size 4 measures a 14-inch (36 cm) front rise and a 27-inch (69 cm) inseam. Note that the lightweight fabric shows soft creasing, which is part of its relaxed look.[7,8,9] |
