Description
GRÅBRODERN is a Swedish brand named with a Swedish word. Our best attempt at pronouncing it sounds something like "Groh-brud-urn," which isn't quite correct, but could probably be worse. The word translates to mean "gray brother," or "friar dressed in gray," but also refers to a neighborhood in the medieval town of Visby, on the island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. This is where the brand takes its inspiration, blending contemporary Japanese takes on Americana with traditional Baltic workwear.
The Eke Trousers were an instant staff favorite here at S&S, being inspired by vintage wide leg Ivy League chinos but with a few unique (and subtle) modifications. We'll begin with the fit, which is a high-rise straight leg cut with a relaxed top block that produces a very clean vertical silhouette. There's plenty of room in the seat and top block as well, thanks to the double pleats on the front of each leg. The fit can also be modified with a single button above each cuff, converting these from a straight leg to a tapered one.
They're made from a 100% cotton Italian twill, clocking in at a comfortable medium weight, with a narrow twill texture and a smooth hand. They've got a really easy drape, with just a bit of structure that'll soften away over time as the fabric breaks in more and relaxes a bit. That said, they're by no means stiff, even when brand new — they start out feeling excellent, they just continue to get better with time.
Other details worth mentioning — a brass zip fly with a tonal waist button, extra thick front belt loops, two roomy hand pockets, a single welted rear pocket, shaping darts beneath the back waistband, and an outstandingly high quality construction that will hold up for years and years with good care.
These are true to size with a relaxed fit. Wash cold and hang dry.
