LA HAINE INSIDE US 4M W5199 Over Wide-Fit Trousers - Black Embossed Jersey Unisex Italian

Regular price €205.00 EUR

Over Wide. Embossed Jersey. Drawstrings at Both Ends.

The LA HAINE INSIDE US 4M W5199 is an over wide-fit trouser in black embossed jersey — a knit fabric with a raised surface pattern applied to the jersey base after construction, producing a textured visual field on a material that retains jersey's natural stretch and softness. The silhouette is volume without restriction: wide from hip to hem, elastic waistband with adjustable drawstrings, bottom drawstrings at both ankle points. Two adjustment points that allow the trouser to be gathered at the waist or released, cinched at the ankle or allowed to fall freely. Unisex. Made in Italy. Fall/Winter 25/26.

Why These Trousers Are Different

  • Embossed jersey fabric: Jersey knit with a raised surface pattern — the embossing process presses a relief pattern into the jersey surface under heat and pressure after knitting, creating a three-dimensional texture that is permanent to the fabric structure; the base jersey retains its stretch and softness while the surface reads as a complex textural field rather than a flat knit plane; in black, the embossed pattern is visible as a dimensional shadow pattern across the fabric surface
  • Over wide-fit silhouette: Volume that begins at the hip and continues to the hem without tapering — the trouser creates a wide, flat leg plane in movement, collapsing and expanding with the body's motion; the elastic drawstring waist sits without restriction, allowing the over-wide volume to drape freely from the waistband
  • Dual drawstring adjustment: Drawstrings at both the waist and the hem — the waist drawstring adjusts the fit at the waistband independently of the elastic; the hem drawstrings at both ankle points allow the leg opening to be gathered or released, changing the silhouette from a wide floor-length opening to a tapered gathered ankle; four distinct configurations from two drawstrings
  • Elastic waistband: The elastic provides the base fit; the drawstring over it adds a second level of adjustment; the combined system accommodates a wide range of body measurements and allows the same trouser to be worn high on the waist or lower on the hip
  • Practical pockets: Storage integrated into the wide-fit construction without disrupting the volume silhouette
  • Unisex design: XS–XL range with wider waist and hip measurements than men's-only constructions; the over wide-fit silhouette is not gender-specific in its proportion logic — the trouser functions across body types by design, not by accommodation
  • Made in Italy: LA HAINE INSIDE US Italian production — embossed jersey construction built to Italian standards at an unconventional volume specification
  • Unlike standard wide-leg trousers in flat jersey or woven fabric, the W5199 applies embossing to the jersey surface to add visual complexity to a high-volume silhouette — the texture prevents the over-wide black jersey from reading as formless

Elastic waist with drawstring accommodates the full waist range within each size. For the over wide-fit silhouette, size to your hip measurement rather than your waist.

The Moment You Put Them On

The embossed jersey falls from the elastic waist with immediate volume — wide, soft, and present. The black reads as a complex surface rather than a flat tone: the embossed pattern creates a dimensional shadow across the fabric, visible in direct light and present as texture under the hand. The drawstring at the waist sits over the elastic, adding or releasing cinch at the waistband; the ankle drawstrings gather or release the hem opening. Four configurations: full volume at waist and hem, gathered waist and open hem, open waist and gathered ankle, or gathered at both ends. The trouser in motion is the full wide-fit proposition — volume that moves with the body rather than restricting it.

This is the LA HAINE INSIDE US unisex trouser built for the full range of what over-wide construction can do.

The Art of Embossed Jersey

Embossed jersey is a knit fabric that has undergone a surface treatment after knitting: a patterned roller or heated press is applied to the jersey surface under controlled temperature and pressure, deforming the knit loops into a raised pattern that is set permanently into the fabric structure. Unlike jacquard or dobby constructions where the pattern is woven or knitted into the fabric structure during manufacturing, embossing applies pattern to the surface of an already-completed fabric — the base jersey retains all of its knit properties (stretch, recovery, softness, breathability) while the surface acquires a three-dimensional texture that a standard jersey cannot achieve. In black, the embossed pattern is rendered entirely in light and shadow — the raised areas catch light at a different angle from the compressed areas, creating a pattern that is visible in any light with a directional component and that disappears in flat, even illumination. This makes the W5199 a trouser with a surface that changes with its environment: in direct sunlight or artificial directional light, the embossed pattern is clearly present; in diffuse or ambient light, the trouser reads as a clean black volume. The wide-fit silhouette amplifies this effect by creating large flat panels of embossed surface visible at the outer leg in movement.

How to Wear Them

  • Full volume, both drawstrings released: The over wide-fit at maximum — the trouser falls from elastic waist to wide floor-length opening; pair with a close-fitting or cropped LA HAINE INSIDE US top to balance the volume below; the embossed surface reads in full
  • Ankle drawstrings gathered, waist open: The volume collapses to a gathered ankle — a different silhouette from the same trouser; creates a gathered-bottom volume shape that works with chunky footwear or boots; the embossed jersey gathers cleanly without bunching at the drawstring
  • Both drawstrings gathered: The trouser cinched at waist and ankle — maximum definition within the wide-fit construction; an hourglass within the volume; the embossed jersey holds the gathered shape at both ends
  • Layered under a long coat: The over-wide volume and long coat create a uniform volume from shoulder to hem; the embossed jersey visible at the hem below the coat; the ankle drawstrings gathered to reveal footwear

Care Instructions

  • Machine wash cold, gentle or delicate cycle — the embossed jersey surface is stable under cold water; avoid hot water which can soften the heat-set emboss pattern over repeated washes
  • Do not tumble dry on high heat — lay flat to dry or tumble dry on low; high heat can partially re-set the embossed surface pattern and alter the relief depth
  • Do not bleach
  • Iron on low heat from inside if needed, with a cloth barrier — do not iron directly on the embossed surface; direct heat contact can flatten the embossed relief
  • Store hanging to maintain the wide-fit leg structure
