Great pants from a first time customer
Review by Gregory K. on 6 Nov 2019 review stating Great pants from a first time customer As a man who appreciates traditional and some trendy apparel, I am always open minded to learn about a brand I am not very familiar with. Over the past month, I have learned more about Ledbury, both as a company and the products. Over that time frame, I learned this is a brand I have to try.
Like many of you, at least I am guessing when I say this, buying clothing online can be challenging. How does it feel, is the actual color matching what we see online, and how does it fit! I decided to email Ledbury. I had questions, which they promptly answered. Then I called and asked some questions on fit. Very helpful associate. (More on that later). I have a lot of shirts and decided to venture into pants, which typically, are a no-no for me to buy without ever trying them on.
I wanted something with some taper and narrowed to the Franklin. These pants are great. They are mainly cotton, yet a soft cotton and not too think or too heavy. The waistband has a cotton facing that adds a touch of comfort and stability. Personally, I wish they were a little more tapered, but for a pant you can wear for many purposes, these are really nice. They look good, feel great and I really like how Ledbury added the stitching on the back pockets.
Gentlemen, pay attention to waist sizing on these. They sit a little above your hips so you might need to size up a size, but before you guess or maybe decide to skip ordering a pair, call them! They are helpful and if the associate you speak to isn’t as familiar with them, they will get you someone who is. They will help and offer advice.
You can always try two pairs and return one or return the original for another size.
My only wish, other than having a little more tapered version, is having these offered in different lengths.
For a first time buying experience, which includes the pants coupled with their customer service, it’s 5 Stars without a doubt.
I am anxious to continue as a Ledbury customer and try a shirt or sweater.
A visit to the upcoming store in NYC and/or Richmond, are also on my list.
