This is a universal wardrobe item that provides for the absence of embarrassing details, convenience and comfort. For everyday life, recreation and sports, it always makes sense to choose such models that allow you to feel free. Do not forget that it is also fashionable.
Advantages and disadvantages

- there is a need for a careful selection of the top, otherwise it may turn out so that you will look ridiculous.
In addition, in most cases, the use of wide pants is possible only in an informal setting, since such models for men do not suit a strict business style at all. There are exceptions, though.
Types of wide men's trousers
Men are happy to give preference to spacious styles, and fashion designers are in solidarity with them - in a relatively short time, they have created a variety of spectacular products that are comfortable to wear.
- They differ in comfortable and extremely simple cut cargo pants. The appearance itself speaks for the fact that the body feels free and comfortable in them. The specificity of the image is welt and patch pockets, including the knee area. This nuance adds rationality to things. The pants are available in beige, gray, light and dark colors, so you can choose any color. The material can be light and dense, so the model is suitable for any season.
- Slacks, as a rule, they are intended for summer, therefore they are made of light fabrics - cotton, linen. The shades are very different, but muted and laconic, which is important for a male image. A characteristic feature - straight legs, in some models - narrow at the bottom.
- Pants or jeans are ideal for a cool period. corduroy with pockets traditionally located on the sides and back. Such models can often have a loose fit or a slightly flared bottom. This does not spoil the image at all, making it warmer and more comfortable.
- Summer option can be considered breeches - from above are wide, spacious, with a narrowed bottom of the model. They are quite effective, but they are more suitable for young men under 30 years old. Despite the long history of existence, these trousers are still popular.
- Men with an active lifestyle can afford and pants "hooligans". They are distinguished by a loose fit, large slanting pockets on the sides. The style is convenient because it does not hinder movement. The materials used are cotton fabric or viscose (maximum naturalness).
And there are also varieties of sports trousers - models with stripes (joggers), in the styles of which space is required, since their use involves training, playing sports, mobility in any form.
Especially it is worth considering the short, wide styles, which many men prefer.
Shortened styles
Not the last place in a man's wardrobe can be taken by trousers, narrowed downwards. The most comfortable and compatible with many styles are considered to be cropped and moderately wide chinos, which are called mankles abroad. They are sewn from cotton fabric, so they are suitable for wearing in summer and autumn. Initially, the outfit belonged to the American military, but because of its many merits, it was highly appreciated by men not associated with the military service.
The image created by chinos is democratic, neutral in terms of narrow purpose, harmonious. The main color palette is khaki, beige, sand, light brown and other shades. The models have a cropped bottom of the legs, which, among other things, allows a man to show off beautiful shoes (of course, correctly selected).
Today we can talk about several types of this fashion trend.
- Trousers with a high waist, straight cut, made of dense material in pastel colors with a rolled up or short hem. An advantageous solution for those men who consider their height insufficient.
- Low rise with pronounced seams ("slim").
- More tightly fitting body contours ("super slim"). These pants are supposed to have a wide variety of colors - both bright and discreet, suitable for men who are seriously involved in business.
Some chinos are even suitable for a business style, fitting into it quite well. If quite recently it was possible to find this style, made only in certain colors, now the choice of colors is simply huge. You can see dark blue and black office trousers, which are in no way inferior to the classic models, but at the same time have a certain zest (of course, an unusual length), which makes them scandalously fashionable and stylish.

And also a denim shirt or jacket is suitable for almost all types of roomy trousers. And don't forget about shoes - this is an important touch in any look. For sports and casual models, it is best to use lightweight sneakers, sneakers or trainers. A strict look requires classic shoes with laces or similar styles without laces.
