Once upon a time, men had little to no choice when it came to trousers. With the evolution of fashion, both men and women alike reveled in the opportunity to diversify their wardrobes according to their tastes and of course, the changing pattern of trends. But right now, we’re more interested in exploring men’s choices, since they are often credited with being far more lenient in terms of styling ideas.

Fall is only one month away, which means that it’s finally time to pull out the trousers that were, are and will eternally be a mainstay in your closet. And yes, prove you mean business by pulling all the stops in terms of style and creativity. At this day and age, your average-joe trousers won’t do the trick. If you want to make it in this cold, cold world, you should present yourself in such a way that no one will ever misjudge your ability to look dapper. The ultimate essentials in a man’s wardrobe are those items that will see you through any situation, from day to night; all day, every day. From chinos, to skinny jeans and formal trousers, there are some items that will never go out of style.
