In short

The Cadogan is SALVE's made-to-measure double-pleated trouser in fluid Terry Rayon, cut high on the waist with two forward pleats, a long straight leg and a deep turn-up. It comes in three colours: Navy, Black and Khaki.

01

What the Cadogan is

A fuller trouser that still looks sharp.

The Cadogan is SALVE's high-rise double-pleated trouser, cut in fluid Terry Rayon. It sits at the natural waist on an extended waistband with side adjusters, designed to be worn without a belt. Two forward pleats open room through the hip and thigh before the trouser falls into a long, straight leg with a deep turn-up.

Where to wear it

The Cadogan is cut for these occasions. Each one links to everything else we make for it.

03

The details

  • High rise, sitting at the natural waist.
  • Two forward pleats.
  • Extended waistband with a hidden closure.
  • Side adjusters. No belt loops.
  • Slanted side pockets.
  • Straight leg with a deep turn-up.
  • Fluid Terry Rayon.
  • Three colours: Navy, Black and Khaki.
04

The best way to wear it

Wear it with
  • Shirt tucked, with loafers, for the office.
  • A knit polo, and let the pleats do the rest.
  • Under a soft sports coat when the day turns formal.
  • Khaki with almost anything. It is the one you will reorder.
Getting the proportions right
  • A pleated trouser wants to sit on the waist, not the hip. That is the whole trick.
  • Wear it without a belt. The side adjusters are there for a reason.
  • The turn-up gives the hem weight, so the leg hangs instead of flapping.
  • One soft break at the shoe, no more.
05

Who it suits, and what else to consider

Choose the Cadogan for the fuller, pleated leg worn high on the waist. The Bowery is the flat-front one if you want a narrower line.

Questions, answered

Do pleats make you look wider?

Forward pleats add room through the hip and thigh, then release into a straight leg. Worn on the natural waist they lengthen the line. Worn on the hip they do the opposite, which is why we cut them high.

Can I wear a belt?

You can, but the trouser is not built for it. The waistband is extended with side adjusters so the line across the front stays clean.

What is Terry Rayon?

A fluid blended cloth with a smooth surface and a good deal of drape. It holds a pleat, moves easily, and hangs rather than stands.

How long should the leg be?

One soft break at the shoe. The deep turn-up adds weight at the hem, which keeps the leg falling straight.

Which colour should I order first?

Khaki. It goes with more than navy does, and it is the one most clients reorder.
