The trousers are part of [Kith's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bw-army) latest collection and arrive just in-time to start the New Year off right. What really stands out is the [elastic cuffs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/875-pant) which gives the pants a nice fitted feel along with brilliantly accentuating one's shoes. The pants themselves are made from cotton twill which is light, but durable. Linear stitch-working along the front knees and then stuttered laterally on the front knee give the pants a trendy look. The pants come in four styles, among which include black, charcoal, olive and camo.
