Lindland's Cordarounds
Tired of the
same old vertically
patterned
corduroy
trousers? The
world’s
largest manufacturer of horizontal
corduroy,
Lindland’s,
is bringing a new kind of cords to the
people. The
goal behind
the
design,
says
company founder Chris
Lindland, is
to
produce an
“aerodynamic corduroy
pant”
that
also
lowers the wearer’s heat
index.Designed to fit loosely, Lindland’s Cordarounds feature a straight leg cut with a slight flare, a flat front (no pleats), and a 19-inch leg opening. This style also has oversize two-
and-a-half-inch
belt loops to
accommodate wider
belts. Cordarounds are
available in
several hues, all sporting
colorfully patterned pockets and
lining,
for
$88.New to Lindland’s line are Summerounds—horizontally patterned
seersucker pants.
Casual
yet
classic, this
style follows Lindland’s
“parallel to
the
street” design
vision and is available
in blue with
burnt
orange
pockets or
tan
with crimson pockets for
$77.
