#166 British Felt Moleskin - Rust

There is a very specific contrast that we find in our absolute favorite fabrics. They have a true sense of ruggedness and heft, while also feeling luxuriously soft and easy to live with. Sometimes you have to work to get there, like a heavy raw denim, other times you truly can have your cake and eat it too right on day one. This British moleskin is truly the best of both worlds. Moleskin is a workwear fabric at its core, designed to be incredibly dense and durable. This version has a substantial 12 ounce weight and an impossibly dense weave. You can feel the sturdiness the moment you put these pants on. However, unlike some heavier Moleskins, the touch of this version is surprising. It is pure luxury. It feels like a cross between velvet and felt. The almost peach-like surface is one of the softest we've experienced. It's really the contrast of weight, density and suppleness that's so special. Each color is deeply saturated and left pure for you to develop through years of hard wear.
