Where the waist sits on the body is a question anatomical. Whether someone wants trousers that sit on, above, or below that point is up to them.

But many people seem to think that having trousers sit at their proper waist is 'high-rise,' so in that sense I suppose it is.

Trousers that sit at the waist generally look odd without something to cover them, IMO. But they look much better with a jacket, and don't fall down.

I suppose that makes sense. I guess I'm the oddball here because I typically don't wear my jacket buttoned and I almost always take it off when indoors for an extended period of time.

I had ordered my first pair of high rise covert trousers during the last sale and ended up returning them because wearing pants at my natural waist just looked and felt odd, but I suppose that's due to the fact that I'm not covering them up the way one normally would. I just tried wearing my regular S&M trousers at my natural waist and the seat was ridiculously tight.

I'm guessing that S&M trousers are cut to sit slightly below the waist, which is where many men wear them these days. And if you're going to be taking off the jacket mainly, then a lower rise is a good thing.

This is a great example of how they should sit otherwise:

I have these, will try and get pics later- in the meantime check some of Burzan's old shots as he has them from the season before.

How dark are they? I know S&M photos normally lighten up the products a lot compared to IRL shots

I held out when it was first released. And 20% off at Black Friday. And 25% off Boxing Day. And no black tie events any time soon but couldn’t pass it up anymore during the liquidation.

There is some bowing in the chest with extra Covid weight and sleeves need shortened but I love it. Shown with off-white cord shirt and slate blue chinos.

I think the photos are pretty accurate. I find them to be more of a gray. Note that I did bump up to slim for any high rise trousers this season. Same size though. See middle piece in attached photo

I have a pair of 28 Slim trousers in normal rise, but was too tight in thigh/crotch when sitting down. Was thinking of sizing up, but now hesitating if that is the case

Haha thanks for enabling but I have a full rig that barely gets used as it is, so I am all set for now. Though an extra odd pair may not be a bad idea.
