These Aleks Dark Grey Fresco Wool trousers are made in Italy from a medium weight wool cloth woven in England by Hardy Minnis, perfect for spring and summer. Fresco fabric is highly breathable, crease resistant, and has a subtle texture that keeps it from looking like suiting. The open weave allows air to flow through, making them ideal for warm weather. A true wardrobe essential, they work just as well with a navy blazer for a sharp look as they do with a patterned jacket for something a little more relaxed.
These trousers come in our Aleks style, which features double-pleats with a high rise and a full cut. Like all Kit Blake trousers, they're made in Italy.
The model in the video is 186CM / 6' 1", and he wears a size 32 in all Kit Blake trousers, finished with a 32' inseam.
About the Aleks style:
The Aleks is our best-selling model and the original style we launched the brand with. It boasts four, inward-facing deep pleats and is cut to sit higher on the waist. The leg is generous, in a classic fit. This is the trouser for those looking for a beautiful, traditional trouser. Like all Kit Blake trousers, the trousers do not require a belt due to having side-adjusters. We recommend that these trousers are worn with a turn-up cuff, but it is up to the client’s preference. Note all of the trousers come unfinished to have them altered to your desired length. If you are in-between sizes, we would recommend going up a size and pulling the adjusters in a little closer as needed.
If you are unsure of your size, or in-between sizes, you should size-up. Please contact us at enquiries@kitblake.com if you have any questions.

The Aleks is our best-selling model and the style we launched with. It boasts four, inward-facing deep pleats and is cut to sit higher on the waist. Like all Kit Blake trousers, it does not require a belt and has side adjusters. The profile of the Aleks is quite full in the thigh with a natural taper to the hem. Gentlemen with an athletic figure of slim waist and well-developed thigh and/or calf muscles appreciate this cut but it is by no means a necessity. There is the option of wearing braces and we have thoughtfully placed buttons inside the waistband to secure proper button-on braces.
What makes Kit Blake trousers special?
All our trousers feature our signature side-adjusters, rubberised brace buttons to grip your shirts, and are made in Italy.
Kit Blake is a brand with a mission. That mission is to revolutionise the way men wear trousers, getting them out of jeans and in to flannels.

Robb Report"Kit Blake has founded a menswear brand aimed at au courant men, who favour versatile, expertly crafted separates."
Permanent Style"Kit Blake is the only brand in this (RTW trouser) guide dedicated to making trousers only. Their classic, Savile Row-inspired designs are made in Italy from British and Italian cloths, and sometimes it’s damn refreshing to try a product which is truly distinctive."
The Rake Magazine"Tailored to a very high standard in true English style, there is probably no trouser more accomplished for all seasons."
Square Mile"A good pair of weighty flannel trousers are an essential for the AW season. They are versatile enough to take you to the office or around the park, depending on how you style them, and cosy enough to withstand the bitter winter wind. "
