Pants with tapered leg

Hello all,

I'll start by saying that I did use the search function first

.

Now onto my questions:

I'm looking for slim fitting pants that have a tapered leg to wear with my RM williams. I have a pair of Incotex but they are way too tight around the thigh/calf areas and I can't wear them regularly (my thighs and calfs are normal sized).

Most of the stores seem to be carrying ridiculously wide (allmost bellbottom like). Any specific brands that have a tapered leg yet aren't skin tight?

Thanks!

You can try Incotex, Borelli, and Barba, but ensure you get the American version rather than the European version. The European is much tighter while the American is tighter than most pants, but about an inch wider than the European.

Agree, should use this method extensively as you will also get exactly what you ask for as well (of course depending on the skill of the tailor)
