Burlingtons update the classic corduroy look by adding a touch of stretch for comfort and fit, and eschewing the traditional 12-wale fabric (that’s 12 ridges per 1.5 linear inches for the poindexters) in favor of an updated 14-wale design that gives the pant a sleeker, more subtle textural profile. Peter’s advice? Bring these versatile big striders into your rotation today. Pair them with soft cotton shirts to go casual, or dress them up with a jacket, tie and your favorite pair of brown brogues.
