For sale here is a pair of pants from Japan’s Kolor label. Kolor is another one of those brands that circles the Comme des Garcons universe. Original designer Junichi Abe worked for several major Japanese labels before founding Kolor in 2005 (he recently stepped down in 2025) and his wife Chitose Abe runs the Sacai label. With Kolor their emphasis is a sort of patchwork aesthetic combined with a lot of technical fabrics. They like to combine a variety of fabrics together, often leaving them partly deconstructed.
The crazy patchwork type stuff is usually reserved for their shirts and jackets, where the pants tend toward a more solid look, although the materials are often still interesting and unique. Material here is 100% wool, done in a summer weight gabardine and partially lined in cupro. A good woolen gabardine is nicely breathable but at the same time insulating – this kind of wool naturally insulates when necessary and is very good at heat regulation. It is also water resistant. This is a straight leg silhouette, maybe a hair slim in the top block with a bit of a flare out toward the ankles. Given the fabric and the lining, I would consider it ideal for fall-spring wear. If you are fond of what the Comme des Garcons Homme line does, for example (or Sacai), these should work well for you. Retail is about $400 in Japan, even more abroad if you can find them, but get it here much more reasonably.
Size is labeled a 3, fitting a 32 inch waist. I measure the waist at 32” / 84cm, inseam at 27.5” / 70cm, rise at 10.5” / 27cm and leg opening at 9” / 23cm. The pants come in lightly used, very good shape with no holes, tears or stains. Made in Japan.
Shipping from Japan to anywhere will be $30.
