The new Rad by Rad Hourani collection features a fantastic [zipper pants design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfpropelled-zipper) for men that offers the cool of [shredded denim](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheese-pocket-jeans) with the option of going conservative by zipping the shreds up.

You easily alternate between the [punk and casual look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/climber-easy-pants) in this pants design by opening and closing the three zippers at the knee area.

I think it’s a fantastic design. Whether it’s because of the cold weather, or because you want to change up your look, it’s awesome to have this option integrated in the design.
