A hard working pant in our quietly bombproof Strongtwill fabric. Relaxed workwear fit with counterintuitively elegant details; a hidden shank, angled-on-seam pockets, oversized belt loops and a discrete dime pocket in the rear. Made in Manhattan and lighter than the Bombworks.

Strongtwill

Fabric Story

A counterintuitively powerful fabric, soft and strong. Strongtwill starts with Supplex, an air texturized nylon fiber originally designed to emulate the soft breathability of cotton in undergarments. To make the Strongtwill dozens upon dozens of these extremely fine filaments are twisted together to make a thick, chunky yarn. The gentle touch is still there but with so many fibers per yarn it hides under a rugged durability, there to slowly emerge with repeated hard wear. A stretch and non-stretch version of these thick supplex yarns are woven together in a 2x1 twill to create two way stretch fabric with the long term softness of cotton combined with the serious toughness of high grade nylon 6,6. The fabric is then finished with an ecocalibrated FO (fluorocarbon free) Zelan R3 DWR to stay cleaner and dry quicker for more intensive wearability.
