Särmä Worker Pants, Wool
Särmä Worker Pants in wool! Classic design from way back when men's clothing was both practical and good-looking. The best thing about these is the darts in the back and pleats in front. They give more room around the hip area, so the pants are a lot more comfortable than the skintight modern pants. We couldn't get the blue fabric any more, so we made these dark gray ones instead and from recycled materials. These are even more awesome than the previous ones.

Särmä Worker Pants in wool! Classic design from way back when men's clothing was both practical and good-looking. The best thing about these is the darts in the back and pleats in front.

We couldn't get the blue fabric any more, so we made these dark gray ones instead and from recycled materials. These are even more awesome than the previous ones.
- 70% recycled wool, 30% recycled polyamide
- Straight leg, comfortable vintage-inspired pants
- Made in Estonia
Old Swedish army work pants are great, although the color is ugly and they simply are not available anymore. We modeled our worker pants after them and changed the cotton fabric to wool because hell yeah. The first color was dark blue, but the current is dark gray because the original fabric was no longer available.
We can't emphasize the importance of darted waist enough. If you have dingly bits, they are free from oppression no matter what your posture is. An added plus is that your legs have complete freedom of movement and your pocket contents are actually accessible. These are so comfortable you'd think you're wearing sweatpants. The extra space in the hip area is fine for the ladies too - it's a deal where everyone wins!
These have cotton reinforcement inside the waistband as well as reinforced cuffs.
The belt loops are suitable for up to 50 mm (2") belts, but for vintage aficionados, we have included buttons for attaching proper suspenders. Wear them up when working: hanging suspenders are a signal that you are off duty. The fly is also buttoned.
Materials
Like the original blue ones, these are also made from Italian wool fabric: but this time it is recycled and comes with higher wool content: 70% recycled wool and 30% recycled polyamide for strength. The fabric weight is 370 g/m2, which is just a tad heavier than the older blue variety, but not much. These are comparable to old-timey civilian pants and not overly bulky. On the outside, the fabric is "unbrushed" because we wanted that fantastic, slightly rough, matt look for these. The downside is that it collects a lot of hair.
These are definitely in their element during the chillier time of the year. For summer, you should choose something else. For really cold winters, put layers underneath.
Sizing
If you know how to buy jeans, you'll do fine: just the waist and inseam in inches. Note that you can pick a precise waist: the thighs and ass won't be in your way. If you fall between two sizes, pick the smaller one. Lengthwise these are easy to shorten if necessary, or just turn the cuffs.
Below, you will find a size chart with the actual centimeter measurements. Note to the old pant owners: The measurements of the new dark gray pants are slightly different from the blue ones. So, if pant buying is precision engineering, check the measurements in the chart below instead of relying on the old pair. The difference isn’t huge though.

EDIT 280220:
Vedätkö pitkät kalsarit talvella slimmien toimistohousujen alle, ihan vaan työmatkaa varten? Ihan turhaa. Nämä kun vetää housujen PÄÄLLE niin on paljon parempi vaihtoehto.

The fabric is thick and overall quality is high. Strong stitching that should last decades, plus the buttons for braces have better stitching than on the cotton worker trousers.

Oman kotini valaistuksessa housut näyttävät lähes mustilta, vaikka ovatkin väriltään tummansiniset. Ei sillä, että asialla olisi mitään väliä. Mustat tai siniset, kummatkin kelpaavat minulle.
