Hello,

Two styles of black knit pants from Cale.
Wool Straight Knit Pants and wool rib-knit pants.

Both are 100% wool. They share the same black colour and size numbers, 3 and 4, but their listed measurements differ. We have put them side by side as a starting point for choosing between the two.

Wool Straight Knit Pants
Size 3: waist 72cm (up to 88cm with the elastic waistband stretched), inseam 79cm, hem width 25cm.
Size 4: waist 74cm (up to 90cm with the elastic waistband stretched), inseam 81cm, hem width 25cm.

wool rib-knit pants
Size 3: waist 70cm (up to 90cm with the elastic waistband stretched), inseam 79cm, hem width 24cm.
Size 4: waist 78cm (up to 100cm with the elastic waistband stretched), inseam 79cm, hem width 24cm.

For example, in size 4 the inseams differ by 2cm and the hem widths by 1cm. The listed waists differ too, so it is worth looking beyond the size number rather than assuming the measurements are the same.

Both product pages list the model as 174cm, wearing size 4. It may help to look between the photos and measurements, and compare them with trousers you usually wear. If you are unsure about sizing, ask us at the shop.

We wrote about what drew us to Cale's fabrics and our visit to the exhibition in Journal #03.
