I love how these pants have adapted to be whatever you need them to be. There's such joy in having a piece of clothing that has your back. Can't wait to see them over the next few years!

I love this ode to your beloved pants, Lan! I've seen Naked and Famous in the consignment shops, and they are always really well-made. I adore a pant that sits low, and is full in the thigh, with pockets! I just discovered the low-slung cut and how flattering it is to a strong thigh. The single pleat is perfect. Could you have a tailor fix the zipper for you?

Thank you! Yes, I think it should be fixable by a tailor—on my original post, someone very kindly gave me instructions on to do it myself but my sewing skills are not at that level haha.

Ha, I am with you. I pay other people to do those type of things.😁

What an amazing pair of pants! Finding something that can take you from the office to fouraging in the forest seems almost like finding a unicorn. Love these posts about your most worn pieces.

Thank you! They are indeed a wardrobe unicorn. :)

I love a good pair of pleat-front trousers. It's so cool that these trousers have evolved with your needs. I have a bunch of pre-pandemic "office" staples that are just sitting there, waiting to be needed again, and I've not figured out how they might work for my present life. On the other hand, if they still fit, I might as well keep them so that I don't have to buy them again!

I know what you mean! I have so many pieces that don't suit my life at the moment, but I don't really feel the urgency to get rid of them. Definitely trying to be less quick to declutter, as it usually just fuels more shopping!
