Clyde Culotte in Midweight Linen
MADE TO ORDER
10-12 week lead time
A lesser-known but beloved member of the Clyde family–the "Wyde Clydes": a wide leg version of our classic Clyde Work Pant. They have our signature, ultra-functional, crescent-shaped side pocket and a fairly straight cut through the leg. The perfect alternative to our Florence if you love the wide leg but need heftier pockets. I really love how dramatic the silhouette is on these; the cinched in waist contrasts sharply with the hip pockets and full leg.
I love the cropped leg with a mid-calf boot for the fall and heeled sandals when it's warmer out. These are going to be my new studio pants; the comfortable waistband makes them perfect for hours at the computer or impromptu meetings on the floor, the pockets are great for stashing stuff, and the roomy leg is ideal for dashing around town.
I have a pair of these that are at least 6 (?) years old, I have patched the inner thighs twice (from so much wear) , I love them so much. I recently ordered a new version in the indigo linen (which is a fantastic, rich color) and got the length customized to a pant with a 33" inseam (which, as a 5'11'' person, I have dreamed about for a while). They are splendid - fantastic drape, extremely comfortable fit while still looking pulled together. The linen is super durable (my 3 year old hangs all over me and they hold up great. Pockets hold a complete treasure trove. Get compliments. Could not be more pleased and happy to have them and have my money go to a fantastic group of folks.
The culottes I ordered in August finally arrived in February and I feel like I really lucked out. Sometimes the universe gives you what you need rather than what you ask for. These pants are amazing just like I remembered and they fit really well. But as can sometimes be true for ES, they don’t adhere to the size chart.I ordered a size L reg with a rise modification. The pair I received has a 14” flat waist as measured edge-to-edge across the top of the waistband with a 21” hip and 25” inseam. I paid extra for a modification to have the rise be 14.5” and it is only 14”. My size changed between order and fulfillment and it has absolutely worked out in my favor. These fit more like a Medium. So while the amazing quality and customer service are still there, so are the size chart challenges. No matter, I have a new pair of pants I love from a business I love. Clyde culottes forever!
WORTH THE WAIT!!! I had my pants custom sized, and they fit like a glove. The quality it top notch and the finish work is beautiful. I know I’ll be wearing these pants for a very long time. Now I have to decide which color to buy next.
