Kit Blake was founded in 2018 with a simple aim: to put trousers back at the centre of men’s wardrobes.
Too often seen as an afterthought, trousers were either ill fitting, overly tight, or designed without the elegance of proper tailoring. Kit Blake set out to change that by creating a ready to wear brand focused solely on classic, well cut trousers.
Every pair is made in Italy using cloths from the world’s finest mills, including wools, cottons and linens woven in Northern Italy, Huddersfield, Somerset, Biella and Northern Ireland. The signature details are a higher rise, side adjusters in place of belt loops, pleats that create shape and comfort, and unfinished hems so each wearer can tailor them to their own style.
Grey flannel trousers are at the heart of Kit Blake, forming both the backbone of the collection and a cornerstone of classic menswear. Once seen as traditional, they now feel sharper than ever as modern tailoring shifts back to fuller cuts and higher waists.
Kit Blake has championed this style since launch, balancing elegance with comfort through refined proportion and clean drape. Grey trousers are especially popular this autumn, reflecting a wider return to proper tailoring and versatile wardrobe staples. Rooted in history yet relevant today, Kit Blake’s flannels embody timeless style with a modern spirit.
Kit Blake is about more than trousers. It is about making the best of traditional tailoring accessible in ready to wear form, with pieces that carry the ease of everyday wear and the refinement of bespoke.
