Frank Leder Men’s Trousers

Trousers like these are made to be worn with braces. They’re manufactured with a high waistband notched in the back, with buttons for braces and a cinch back, an adjustment in the back of the waistband to let out the waist. The trouser front is padded to the knee, and the trousers are closed with a button placket. A small loop made of the outer fabric is attached to the right front side of the trousers.

Fashion designer Frank Leder, based in the west of Berlin, has dedicated himself to the creation by hand of day and evening wear for the gentleman, taking into account traditional tailoring, bespoke measurement and the careful selection of cloth in his own studio. He finds inspiration in textiles from the 1920s, 30s and 40s, bringing into play the styles of bohemians and proletarians, bourgeoisie and craftsmen alike. He interprets these set pieces from the past both in the cut and in the accoutrements of each design in a fresh, modern and casual way. All of the pieces in the Frank Leder collection are handmade in Germany from selected wool and linen. The buttons always come from old remainders – on the garment, of course, they are all alike.
