Just my two cents worth from a “woman of a certain age.” I have always liked the look of pleated pants on men. They somehow look more classy, more stylish, and men seem to be more comfortable wearing them. The newer, flat front style always look uncomfortable to me and bring down the quality look of a suit. Pleated pants in a suit always look good. Flat front, not so much.
Thankfully, pleats and high-rise trousers are coming back. It's mostly for the girls based on what I notice(especially in class) but I'm gonna join in for the boys out there.
Not sure where you found Preston, Raphael, but I can't imagine a more perfect person to add to your staff. He has the look, poise and articulation. Home run. Hope to meet you both in Atlanta at Menfluential 2019. Oh, and pleats? Hell no.
Pleats are absolutely great once you wear them "correctly". Un my country, 85% of men wear them incorrectly. So I've never considered pleats as fashionable. But when I started watching videos like this, I start to understand that pleated pants have their own purposes and you have to wear them properly. On the othr hand, flat front pants are easier to be worn properly.
His body language and stage presence needs work. You can tell Raphael has looked at himself in the mirror for practice. Keep it up Preston, you’ll do great! Thanks for the vid
I always get single forward pleats on my bespoke suit. Legs well tapered from the knee downwards. No cuffs. Looks more interesting and is more comfortable than flat front. Very difficult to find decent pleated trousers off the rack in my experience.
Off the rack I can recommend to you: Anton Meyer, Pini Parma, Benevento. Anton Meyer and Benevento are more roomy- I wont fit it in Pini Parma pants sadly. Anton Meyer even has a sewn in rubber band to keep your shirt better in place
I've been looking forward to the return of high-waisted, pleated pants. I like the long-legged look, and they're SO comfortable. Never understood the appeal of the long-body, short-legs look of low-waisted pants. Carry Grant is pretty much the ultimate in class.
In my opinion, pleats don't have anything to do with fashion. Pleats aren't in or out of fashion. Simply put, pleats are a stylistic aspect of menswear that has many applications for differential formalities.
My grandad's generation bought clothes for comfort, not for vanity. Hence wide leg trousers with pleats. It was also simpler and more economical from a manufacturing perspective to make trousers this way as they fit a wide array of physiques.
Preston is a good addition to the channel. I'm fairly new to dressing up, and I've wondered if it was safe to wear pleated pants. What I'd like to see is a video on the basics of how to match colours, patterns and textures when choosing sports jackets and trousers.
I think that was very well described. I haven’t worn pleated pants since the 90s. I can however see the appeal to date. Also you made some strong points that I might not have thought of in defense of them currently. Thanks again for another great video
As a very slim man, I must say I love pleated trousers. I got two pairs from Spier and Mackay and they fit very well, the silhouette is much better than flat front and more comfortable too
I just bought my first pleated pants as part of a grey flannel suit and I was kind of surprised of the extra room because I am used to slim flat front pants. Your video was a great help on all the questions I had. Great job!
Great job, Preston. I’ve always been a fan of pleated pants (from watching those fashion plates in old movies) but have gone flat front with the crowd. This gives me the courage and information to get my pleats back!
I do wear pleated pants every day, even at work. Actually, these are custom-made chinos from Lands'End that I got made this way. They are also high raised and hemmed. Plenty of room for my large hips because of the extra fabric. Many advantages also: I can wear them at any season. These days, it is "funny" to see my colleagues with skinny fit trousers and jeans shivering in the cold and myself just being alright because the extra fabric protects my legs from the cold. The same ones telling me: "You look like grandpa!" At least, Grandpa is not cold...
Definitely enjoy a well tailored pair of pleated trousers because I'm somewhat slight of built I often will include suspender buttons to establish a more continuity in the overall look of the trousers thanks for another fine video!
I like pleated pants mainly for more space they give, I much more prefer wider trousers than slim ones becoause slim pants pull hairs on my legs and its uncomfortable for.
Without pleats, pants look so plain in the front and is awkward and also restrict leg movement, on an unstretchable cloth. But a single reverse pleat can give a better decent look.
Pleats are simply a functional item. For a man with a larger seat and thighs, what's a better option - pleats on an otherwise sleek and stylish pair of pants, or buying 1-2 waist sizes larger than necessary just to get enough leg room? I've been buying 1-2 waist sizes larger and having the waist taken in, just to get the leg room I need. Pleats seem like a much simpler solution.
Yep, I'll echo the previous comment. Peston's videos are great, and I wear and enjoy numerous pairs of pleated pants, both odd pairs and pants that are part of suits.
If you wear suits to work, you need some with pleats just for comfort reasons. 80% of my suits are athletic cut or English cut suits, but I need some with fuller cut and pleats to be comfortable sometimes. Or if you sit down at a desk at work, pleats will be helpful.
Pleats are fine. Depends on the occasion and look you're gravitating towards. On the yacht, I think a pair of pleated khakis would look fantastic, but in a dinner setting, may want to consider straight legs. Wish I had a Yacht!! LOL
Very informative, thank you. To me fashion come and go and will come back around and it makes me laugh that pleats are considered old fashion or what your grandfather used to wear, maybe because older generations know the value of good taste in fashion and some man really know how to carry themselves - just my own opinion.
Great post. I love a nice forward pleat because of my body type. I'm currently having a navy nailed suit made with a 3 1/4 notch lapel and Neapolitan shoulder with 3 button stance. The roll of the lapel is being made to roll softly to a 2 button stance. Your video made me call my suit maker to request a single forward facing pleat. Thank you!!!
I ONLY wear double reverse pleated pants with a 1 inch cuff. Wayy more confortable. I have the same build as the guy making the video (i just found the channel tonight) also its nice to know someone who knows fashion still ubderstands the need for pleats. I use a meduim break. Centervent coats only with pleats.
This is great, I have big thighs and slim pants are always uncomfy but I was afraid to use pleated pants bc they didn't seem stylish. change my mind. thanks :)
A couple days ago I came across a fabulous pair of navy trousers with triple pleats at the thrift store! Unfortunately they weren't my size, or I absolutely would have brought them home :'( All of my pals who are into vintage styles, thrifting, and repairing used clothing are totally bonkers for pleated pants. We just cannot get enough of them. I look forward to their glorious return
I am considering getting a suit made to measure with single pleat pants. I usually wear flat front, relaxed fit dress pants because I like to have a roomy feel. However my first mtm suit from Men’s wearhouse has flat front pants and while they fit it feels just a touch constricted for my tasted.
I only wear pleated dress pants. I love the extra room it gives up front. Also, I only wear dress pants with a cuff at the bottom. Today I just put on a pair of dress pants that I bought because they were on sale. Flat front and no cuff…I felt so constrained up front and I didn’t like the way the pants “fell” with no cuff. Just my preference. I’m also not a fan of the slim fit and “skinny” jeans so I’m sure that plays a part. This guy really knows his stuff.
With pleated pants, do you crease down the front or leave without a crease. I just got a Armani Exchange high wasted pleated pants off eBay and the only issue is the wool blend fabric bc it’s a loose knit and piles up east like a sweater. So I’m sure it’s just in this case, but it seems harder to find 100% wool, unless you’re buying higher end bc many company go for tye cheaper fabrics to keep the cost and price down But back in the days, most pants came in 100% wool, even the non designer brands. So nowadays with fast fashions, you get the look, but this generation miss out on quality and lasting clothing. I hope that changes for this generation bc I hate wearing 1 to 3 times and the fabric is piling up and looks cheap bc now almost everything is blended with polyester. Or if they give you mostly wool, it’s really thin. So for me looking sharp is not an issue and been dressing up since the early 80’s, but it’s the quality of the clothing . In the past, you bought designer to have unique designs to stand apart from everyone. But now since men’s forward fashions have been going on since the early 80’s, it’s seems to have gone back to the classics and quality. Meaning you can have a suit jacket that could range from $75. to $600. and both look stylish, but the $75. suit jacket may last you a few years and maybe 6 cleanings before it starts looking worn. So I see these younger 25 to 35 year olds dressed up in Zara and H&M clothes. But I also see how the fit is off and the clothing not being well made. I mean i buy Zara and H&M also, but if it’s cheaply made and don’t fit correctly, I don’t buy it. Meaning I don’t have the money to buy all high end, but I’m pretty selective with mower end brands. I mean I could spend $25. to $35. at a thrift store and come out looking like I bought everything from Neiman Marcus.
Went shopping this weekend. Macy’s had no pleated pants; Von Maur and Joseph A Bank each had one style with pleats. Disappointing. For muscularly built men, pleats have always been a better option. Luckily I hunted through my closet & took a few to the tailor to be tapered. Good video. Good channel. Thanks.
I have quite a few pairs of pleated trousers. Some double pleated some single pleated and some inward facing. I also have a vintage saville row suit that came with pleated trousers...... I love pleats it’s so annoying that they are hard to buy in the uk due to not being the in fashion I really have to search online and buy vintage
Maybe I'm wrong but I consider pleated pants classic and not a fad. Cuffed looks more formal. In addition men wearing pleated pants show aura of confidence.
Hello. My name is Charalampos Daniilidis and i am from greece. Thank you for this video, and the content of this channel. I have recently ordered a bespoke suit from a greek tailor. I always had a problem with jeans and pants because i have very muscular yet slim legs and i always tent to tear the fabric between the legs of my pants. I even change the way i walk too because pants always seem stiff to me plus constricting the way i walk and move. After my tailor's advise i took the decision to add a pleat on my suit pants. I recently went to try them and it was the most comfortable pair of pants i have ever whore. My suit pants in my opinion ,are also very stylish. The pleat adds to their style. One thing Pleated pants are, is the solution people came up to solve my type of problems. I have already visit my tailor 3 times for abjustments with the suit and i am waiting for it to get done. You guys and this channel led me do a decision to order my first suit, which is a dark charcoal 2 button suit. Before that i went with a pair of bespoke oxford shoes too an i will never regret it. Keep up the good work and continue the inspirational videos. You are a very good source of information and inspiration and open the eyes of the new generation. Thank you :)
I like pleated pants, and fortunately they are still quite commonly found here in Japan, even in new styles. Also, because of the exercises I like and the large amount of walking I do weekly, I have what could properly be termed enormous thighs. Any "thin" styles are out of the question as far as I'm concerned. I simply won't fit them.
I recently bought a pair of high waisted, pleated trousers that Indiana Jones wore (which are based off of military pinks) and I've come to love how comfortable they are. It was awkward at first, but I love wearing them when I can. However I find myself in a bind looking at fitted high waisted trousers and can't decide if I want them pleated or not.
It's likely a bit of both; the main culprit on my part is mild cerebral palsy and legs of different lengths. I need some new lifts for my shoes! - Preston
Please close your camera's iris one stop, maybe two. The video's highlights are slightly blown out and spoil what would otherwise be a beautiful picture.
I've always wondered about Pleated pants since you see them a lot in second hand stores and I've never been able to make them look as neat and nice as flat fronted pants. They always seem to balloon up thanks to the excess cloth and the stiff zipper when I sit too which is a bit awkward. lol
School had a non uniform day today since it's the last day of term. I thought I was dressing fairly casually in jeans a shirt and jumper but good Christ, the amount of tracksuits there made it hell.
A light weight, single pleated pant with that continuous pant line without cuff is the pant I have found to be the most comfortable for those long days in the office.
I've always admired the pleated pants but never had the courage to try them. Thanks to this guide, I will get them custom made ASAP. Also, will the pleated pants and suspenders be a good combo? Preston is doing a good job and the glasses surely enhance his overall look!

Difficult to find suits now with pleated pants.
women 'of ceratin age' up DO NOT MATTER. they are paria
@@michaelcap9550If there are any Thrift stores/ Goodwills where you live, you might try them. I get a lot of Vintage, and retro clothing from them.
Thankfully, pleats and high-rise trousers are coming back. It's mostly for the girls based on what I notice(especially in class) but I'm gonna join in for the boys out there.

@@JeremiahAlphonsus Millenial ignorami? I am sure pants of the 1920s were flat-front.
Preston is doing a great job. I'm enjoying his videos as much as Raphael's. I'm almost tempted to try pleats now.
I wear pleated as much as possible in linen, wool and cotton chino styles. I have denim pleated jeans from Haggar Work to Weekend brand name.
This man is so angular.
Atlas457 it’s like he was created in a wood shop lol
I always get single forward pleats on my bespoke suit. Legs well tapered from the knee downwards. No cuffs. Looks more interesting and is more comfortable than flat front.

John Matthias - Yes! Totally agree!
Answer: It depends...
This fellow is a worthy addition to the channel. Very well spoken and obviously knows his stuff.
Preston, your delivery is really coming on. It's wonderful to see you getting into the role, I enjoyed this video very much. Keep up the good work.

I've always loved pleaded pants with cuffs and still love them. Excellent video!

Always liked cuffed pleated pants the most!

- Preston
Yeah, but we miss the smiling Brazilian guy with the strong German accent
"You can totally pull them off, and we will show you how." If I can't pull off my pants, I have a real problem.
I think that was very well described. I haven’t worn pleated pants since the 90s. I can however see the appeal to date. Also you made some strong points that I might not have thought of in defense of them currently. Thanks again for another great video

I unintentionally purchased two suits with pleated trousers. They are quite comfortable on the days I have stay seated at my desk for long hours.
I feel in love with pleats when I saw gurkha style trousers...they add character!
I love wearing Pleated Trousers, I wear them with my 80s/90s Suits. Also I wear Suits All Day, Everyday for my Favorite Personal Style!
Good Job Preston! while I have respect for pleats, there is no way I am going beyond a single pleat.
Without pleats, pants look so plain in the front and is awkward and also restrict leg movement, on an unstretchable cloth. But a single reverse pleat can give a better decent look.
I have to say Preston is doing a great job! Not yet as refined a screen presence as Sven Raphael's but given time...
Raphael is so much thinner ...

I like this guy, he made five minutes feel like twenty. I don’t want to go to bed yet and this is a great video to postpone that
I think you made the perfect pick in Preston!
I think Preston has done an admiral job as the new addition, and speaks clearly and dress nicely, I hope he is here to stay.
4:47 was the best part haha Preston is phenomenal at this!
I’m a young lad but I’d like to know where I can get some

Pleated pants are classic and look great
I have bigger thighs relative to my waist. Flats are not comfortable for me over an extended time. Pleats all the way all day.
I wish you would cover classic ballet attire in one of your upcoming videos.
At 4.46 you've buttoned the last button on the vest, that's a bit weird. Nice video!
It’s not weird. Leaving it unbuttoned is an English thing. And even then 90% of English people don’t do it.
I feel that they give the paints some style. then just having them flat. like a pair of jeans...I myself, love having pleated paints.
Well done Preston. Thank you for sharing. I enjoy this channel. Be well.
I like pleated pants, and fortunately they are still quite commonly found here in Japan, even in new styles.

Any "thin" styles are out of the question as far as I'm concerned. I simply won't fit them.
I’m 26. Always liked pleated pants. Bought a third pair recently. I hate slim pants especially on guys with big legs 🤮
I like pleated pants I think they should continue and styles
I love pleated high waisted or fishtail pants, I just can’t find quality brands or stores that aren’t in the high end
I recently bought a pair of high waisted, pleated trousers that Indiana Jones wore (which are based off of military pinks) and I've come to love how comfortable they are. It was awkward at first, but I love wearing them when I can. However I find myself in a bind looking at fitted high waisted trousers and can't decide if I want them pleated or not.
Excelent video! Great job Preston!
Hasn't anyone noticed that the camera seems tilted or he is standing a bit leaned to the right?
It's likely a bit of both; the main culprit on my part is mild cerebral palsy and legs of different lengths. I need some new lifts for my shoes!

Also if you could lower the camera's iris it would go a long way in improving the look of the video.
@@gentlemansgazette what an inspiration! Outstanding. Best of luck. Love the channel.
Please close your camera's iris one stop, maybe two. The video's highlights are slightly blown out and spoil what would otherwise be a beautiful picture.
Love the recap at the end too. I was wondering about those exact clothing items and u addressed them all
I like Swen’s look and style. Thanks for the information.

I’m very thin, so I prefer higher waisted single pleated or flat fronted trousers
I find pleated pants to be more confortable and form fitting, the look is great, a great pair of pleated pants just gives me a power look.

Pleated pants! Very flexible for all silhouettes.
Any brands you guys can recommend? I'm having a hard time finding double pleated pants in Germany :(
Personally, I want creased dress pants. With or without pleats. It looks more formal to me. Btw, nice to have Preston again
A light weight, single pleated pant with that continuous pant line without cuff is the pant I have found to be the most comfortable for those long days in the office.
He said you can totally wear them and pull them off.... Thankfully I can do that with my current pants
I've always admired the pleated pants but never had the courage to try them. Thanks to this guide, I will get them custom made ASAP. Also, will the pleated pants and suspenders be a good combo? Preston is doing a good job and the glasses surely enhance his overall look!
Going to buy some pleats now! Thanks Preston!
I have quite a few pair of pleated pants.
where do you get your pleated pants
where can i get triple pleated, front facing pants?
