Gurkha Pants
Inspired by British military dress, Gurkha pants are distinguished by their high waist and adjustable waistband. Reimagined with a sartorial sensibility, they combine a straight-leg cut with details drawn from traditional tailoring.
Gurkha pants – military-inspired tailoring
Discover Gurkha pants, a distinctive piece in our selection of pants by fit. Recognizable by their high waist and crossover waistband with side buckles, they combine military-inspired details with a dressy silhouette. A different take on pleated pants, with a defined waist and room through the leg.
A high waist and signature waistband
The Gurkha pants owe their distinctive character above all to their construction: a wide crossover waistband, adjustable at the sides, that defines the waist without the need for a belt. Pleats add volume through the upper leg and allow freedom of movement. Worn with a tucked-in shirt, they show off the full detail of their finishing and create a silhouette with structured proportions.
Dharan pants, two distinctive colors
Our Dharan Gurkha pants come in navy blue and burgundy. The first pairs easily with white shirts, cream knitwear, and brown jackets. The second makes a bolder color statement alongside sky blue, gray, or navy. In either case, the detailed waistband alone adds interest to an understated outfit.
Styling tips: how to wear Gurkha pants
The key to a balanced outfit is showing off the high waist:
- For everyday wear: pair them with a tucked-in Oxford shirt and loafers. The waistband stays visible and gives the silhouette structure, with no need for other accessories.
- For a casual look: choose a knit polo or a lightweight sweater, tucked in or short enough to leave the waist visible.
- For a dressier look: pair them with a shirt and jacket. Adjust the pants’ length for a clean drape with little break over the shoes.
