Egon Black Designer Wool Pant with Pleats and Tapered Fit

“Egon” is a black designer wool pant with pleats and a tapered fit, crafted from 100% Italian wool by Faliero Sarti. The low crotch, precise waistband construction, shaped volume, and leg that narrows toward the hem combine relaxed tailoring with dark avant-garde. A wool pant by eigensinnig wien for women and men who seek sartorial details, textile depth, and an unconventional silhouette.

Black pleated pant in Faliero Sarti wool with a tapered fit

This black pant is neither a classic suit pant nor an ordinary pleated pant. “Egon” combines width in the upper section with a clearly guided leg line that becomes narrower toward the hem. The result is a shape that feels relaxed yet consciously constructed.

The pleats give the pant depth, movement, and space at the hips and thighs. The tapered fit gathers the silhouette at the leg and creates tension between width and form. This places “Egon” between relaxed tailoring, dark fashion, and avant-garde fashion for women and men.

Inspiration: Relaxed tailoring and sartorial tension

“Egon” lives from contrasts. The pant feels generous, but never shapeless. It has a soft drape while remaining clear in its line. Classic tailoring elements are taken up and reinterpreted through a low crotch, pleated volume, and handcrafted details.

The design does not follow a loud idea of elegance. Instead, it creates a dark, precise presence: a wool pant for people who understand clothing not as decoration, but as attitude, movement, and deliberately shaped form.

Cut & construction: Pleats, low crotch, and tapered leg

The carefully constructed waistband forms the starting point of the silhouette. The pleats are not merely decorative; they define the entire shape of the pant. They guide the volume downward from the waistband and give the width an architectural direction.

The low crotch gives “Egon” a relaxed, slightly slouchy effect. At the same time, the leg that narrows toward the hem prevents the silhouette from appearing too wide or heavy. The tapered fit structures the movement and makes the pant wearable without smoothing away its distinctive character.

The result is a black designer pant that moves between wide pants, pleated pants, and avant-garde wool pants. It appears confident, sculptural, and deliberately outside classic categories.

Material & color: 100% wool by Faliero Sarti in black

“Egon” is crafted from 100% Italian wool by Faliero Sarti. The traditional Italian textile company was founded in 1949 in Prato, in the heart of Tuscany’s textile region, and has stood for high-quality fabrics with a distinctive feel for decades.

The wool brings textile depth, natural warmth, and an elegant drape. It has enough substance to carry the pleats and the volume of the pant, while remaining soft enough to make movement visible. In this way, the material supports not only comfort, but also the special construction of the cut.

In black, “Egon” appears dark, clear, and graphic. The color emphasizes the depth of the pleats, the line of the leg, and the handcrafted accents. The result is a wool pant that integrates strongly into all-black looks, yet also works as a statement piece on its own.

Details: Horn buttons, hand-sewn accents, and gray inner hem

The waistband is accented by visible buttons and gives the pant an almost bespoke effect. The pockets are integrated into the construction and emphasized by hand-sewn details. These accents do not feel decorative or added on, but rather like subtle traces of craftsmanship.

A special detail lies at the hem. When the pant is cuffed, a gray inner hem becomes visible, breaking the black surface and adding subtle tension to the look. Worn closed, the silhouette appears more reduced; cuffed, it becomes more graphic and more strongly accented.

The connection of pleats, low crotch, tapered fit, and handcrafted details makes “Egon” a wool pant with its own rhythm: movable, constructed, and deliberately nonconformist.

Styling: How to Wear Egon - From Oversized Layers to Precise Tailoring

With its dropped crotch, pleats, and tapered leg, “Egon” can be styled with both generous volumes and more fitted tops. The black wool pants work especially well in monochrome looks where contrasting silhouettes and material textures create depth and visual tension.

For both women and men, “Egon” can be paired with the Hades Wool Cardigan. Its oversized cut and hood echo the relaxed volume of the pants and create a dark, fluid silhouette.

For women, “Egon” can be styled with the Persephone Designer Poncho for an expressive all-black look. The generous volume of the poncho contrasts with the tapered leg of the pants, emphasizing the interplay between width and a controlled silhouette. The gray Bridewell Women’s Sweater creates a subtle color contrast. Its asymmetrical lines complement the shaped silhouette of “Egon” and add another layer of visual tension to the look.

For men, “Egon” can be paired with the black Mises Designer Blazer for an unconventional interpretation of a tailored suit. The slim cut and Mandarin collar create a precise counterpoint to the dropped crotch and pleated volume of the pants. For a longer, more distinctive silhouette, the Roquentin Men’s Winter Coat completes the look with a continuous black silhouette and a distinctly avant-garde presence.

With boots, “Egon” takes on a raw, urban character, while minimalist leather shoes create a more sartorial interpretation. When the hem is cuffed, the gray inner facing becomes visible, adding a subtle break to the all-black look.

Manufacture & atelier: Wool pant with handcrafted character

Crafted in our regional manufactory, “Egon” stands for artisanal quality, small production runs, and a conscious alternative to fast fashion. The Italian wool, precise waistband construction, and shaped width make the pant a long-lasting piece with a clear attitude.

Upon request, the designer wool pant can be individually adjusted in our tailoring atelier in Vienna — for a fit that preserves the pleats, low crotch, tapered fit, and distinctive line.
