Hiltl has been making trousers in Bavaria since 1955 and has spent seven decades developing an opinion about what a trouser should do that is, by now, extremely well-formed. It should hold its shape. It should sit correctly at the waist without assistance. The fabric should breathe without losing structure, and the cut should flatter without constraining. Their range at Richard Gelding spans cotton chinos, technical stretch trousers, casual trousers, and shorts: the trouser for every occasion that is not a suit, made by people who have thought about very little else.
