"Introduced a couple of years ago now, our Manhattan style with Rota was born from our needs for more casual fits. For many of us, the classic Rota shapes paired with a shirt, tie and jacket have given way to more relaxed trousers, light sweaters and cardigans. We felt it fitting to update the fits we've carried and lend Rota's skills to the silhouettes we've been loving. The single-pleated trouser is less roomy than double-pleat but more relaxed than our classic shapes but just as stunning. The single-pleat works beautifully with the comfort and drape of cotton corduroy. This version in black fine-wale cord seem particularly useful for evening use, or for contemporary fits in shades of grey and black."---Greg
