Cropped Tapered Leather Trousers – Elastic Waist Ankle Pants

These trousers take a relaxed, tapered leg down to a cropped ankle-length hem — easy to wear, easy to move in. A thick elasticated pull-on waistband with gathered pleat detailing does the fitting work for you. Horizontal seams at the knee add structure without stiffening the drape.

Tapered-leg leather trousers with a pull-on elastic waistband and cropped hem

Front side slip pockets and back welt pockets keep the silhouette clean while staying genuinely useful. The knee seams aren't just decorative — they hold the leg's shape through repeated wear. Every pair is handcrafted to your own measurements, not a size chart.

Frequently asked questions

What measurements do I need to provide?
Natural waist circumference, widest hip measurement, and your desired inner leg inseam length. Add these in the order notes at checkout.

Yes. Every cropped tapered leather trouser ships free worldwide and is handcrafted to order.
