Jeans or chinos. That's usually the whole choice. The Flint is neither — cut like a painter's trousers, double knees, a stripe that came off the railroads. Made to be worked in, which is why they look right.

• Double knees, where trousers wear through first
• Washed soft — no stiff first week
• Deep angled pockets with rivets at the corners
• Navy railroad stripe or faded olive
