I’ve been rocking drop crotch jeans and trousers for a couple of years now and love them!! All Saints and Vivienne Westwood definitely do the best styles.

I normally wear mine with some gusset style pumps or military boots.

Great article Jacob! I’ve also been wearing this style for quite some time, having to tailor them myself out of bootcut/worker style jeans before the drop crotch came to market….which was a pain in the arse and I much prefer the product picks.
Topman have also just got a great collection of drop crotch trousers in also….definitely worth a look peeps!

Does anyone think the wearer of drop crotch trousers has to be of a certain height for them to look right?

Personally I think if you are too tall they arent going to look as good as they do on someone who’s a little shorter.

Great article Jacob, I started wearing these last summer and All Saints and Vivienne Westwood are definitely on top of this trend, Topman have just started to release their own version called carrot top jeans for S/S 10 and Aqua Couture in Leeds has a number of styles.

And I don’t think it matters what height you are, just aslong as you’re wearing them right, I’m 6′2 : )

Great article J, congrats – really well written!

Those oki-ni ones look pretty nice, i like them!

I love mine from all saints! Not quite a prominent drop as the other all saints ones posted but they are certainly different!

Im 5′ 10″ by the way

I got a brilliant pair of drop crotch jeans from All Saints recently for £55 and I love them, highly recommended! Only problem is I’m 6′3″ and they only come in one leg length…

Well, I love it. But, where, in America(USA), can I find these Dropped Crotch Pants?

Help me!!!!

I absolutely love drop crotch trousers, all saints definately do the best ones!

I personally think the drop crotch/carrot style does look better on shorter people, as the drop is made that more prominent.

Timothy, All Saints have a stand alone store in Miami and LA.

You can also order online via http://www.allsaints.com, just select the US bit at the top right hand side.

great piece…great look….LuV iT!!!!!

@jacob really like thos grey woolen trousers in the bottom left corner, very nice and great find.

I managed to pick up these drop crotch jeans in the all saints 20% sale beginning dec for £60.

http://www.allsaints.com/product/?all=1&page=1&category_id=7&&prod_desc_id=5051214514222&position=6

they look cool with my white nike air jordans, black/grey air jordan hi tops and my tan brogues for a smarter look, just wish i could find other pairs trousaers or chinos that have this fit just above the top of the trainer/shoe so you can show off a nifty pair socks once the weather gets warmer !

i now what you mean about people showing off their ankles with a pair pointer boater shoes and rolled up jeans but most of those styles seem to peeps who have bought skinny jeans and just rolled them up.

Not keen on the oki ni styles though, too many inner city yoof look for me in my thirties…lol

OH. ive been wanting some for ages! but im just too cheap to buy any! ha. i love some on the oki ni website. with the hemmed ankles. but they are sold out at the moment. got any good hints of where to pick up some bargain ones? saw some in topman, i like the ones that are joggers too. great article btw! x

Hey Guys,
Thank you for all your nice comments.
As for the height concern I don’t think it’s an issue, it depends on what look your going for. I am 5’11 and I have a few pairs with different length drops some small and discreet others not so, I have a pair that I found rummaging through a Juggling shop (of all places) that are literally mid calf length

I am working on a really cool design at the moment for some sweat material, summer Drops / Joggers although how easy exercise will be in them I am not entirely sure, but I will keep you all posted.

For the Money conscious Crafted at Republic do a really cheap pair,
and you still might be in time to grab a pair in the SALES….

I’ve noticed a few people starting to wear these around my area, they get mixed reviews but I just bought some Humor drop crotch pants 2 months ago and they fit lovely!

Hmmmmm, can I be an oike and say I’m not convinced by the drop crotch just yet. I think it’s more where my own head is in terms of the look I want but, I just don’t get them…I will say though, those middle bottom row oki-ni ones look interesting…and in browsing those I saw these: http://www.oki-ni.com/invt/dam0101crm&cm_vc=productpage – which I think are *gorgeous*.

Hey i’m in a desperate search for some drop-crotch sweat pants. I saw some at OAK a month or so ago but apparently they are gone now….Any recommendations?

Really well written and put together – It’s what I had written for my application to become a contributor for this blog! Not to worry I really enjoyed it and your picks were fantastic. I recently found myself in drop crotch trousers when I accidentally tried a pair on in Vivienne Westwood. I’m loving the look and feeling of them particularly when I’m dressing up rather than going for a more casual look. They’re definitely going to be a stand out trend this year.

would it be a good idea to remodel old jeans into such a drop crotch fashion?

if so, how do i tell the tailor who is going to do it for me and how low should the crotch go?

Okay Ben – those are lovely I think I need to revise my statement lol.

NOPPOL- When I first spotted a Guy in Drop crotches back in 2007 (he was ridiculously ahead of fashion)
I tried to tailor some myself out of old comfy fit Jeans I didn’t have the heart to throw away.
One way I tried was to taper the legs, which gives a subtle drop crotch look and a couple of favourites that I am always wearing were some old Jeans and suite trousers that I sewed big chunky zips into the legs to taper them.
Also you can try opening the middle seem and sewing a strip of fabric down the centre and then tightening the legs, I recommend giving it a go you do get a feeling of pride when wearing yourself tailored drops ? good luck!

And again a big thanks to all for your nice comments, I’m glad you enjoyed the article.

@Ben – Hahaha, they should have an email service so that you can watch specific items for restocks etc. At the mo I’m coveting http://www.oki-ni.com/View-All-Christian-Peau/Christian-Peau-Boots/invt/cpe0014blk and waiting for more size 9s…

Thanks JOSH

well,apparently those oki ni humor ones are in high demand. they are the ones i mentioned earlier on.

also, guys, do you think you could set up an email response when someone else has also commented on an article. or even just an email we can subscribe to. i mean, its already bookmarked, but for us lazy students. ha.

take it easy all. also river island in Uk have recently introduced smart drop crotch trousers for cheap. so yeah, look there also. cheers all! x

Just managed to snap up a pair of Tailored drop crotch returns from All saints for 27 smackers. Oh happy days!!

no way jacob! which ones? and where from? JEALOUS! x

SAMOS – I know right, I am well chuffed.
They were the last pair from All saints Vintage range.
Keep your eye on there website as if they get any returns they put them up, but they dont hang around for long

mate, you have no idea (well you probably do…) but i also bagged, not one, but TWO pairs today. ha. i couldnt resist, managed to get the march pants, which just came into stock, and also a pair of carrot fit jeans (gunfit). both of which im elated with! and both of which are now out of stock. so, thanks to your post, i got straight back on the site and got me some! CASHBACK! anyway, thanks, and keep up the good work! x

This fit of jeans / trousers is easily my favourite , a slim leg and small leg opening without having to strangle your upper leg. However , i still struggle to find pairs i like , they either gather too much the leg or arent a nice wash.
Anyway , good article. Those grey humor trousers are very nice , ive seen the jeans before but not those , i may have to get a pair.

They actually look good on tall people.

PINOYROCKS! – I agree, I just got some from All saints that would probably look better on someone taller than me!
I think it definately depends on the style, fortunately there starting to hit the shelves in different shapes and sizes so you should be able to find the perfect pair for your shape and hight..
happy hanging.:)

@rasco this type of fit of jeans is exactly what you and me need, maybe you need more room in the upper thigh but want very slim at the bottom. I am normally size 32/32 in most fits of denim but found myself buying a 30 waist in this type of fit cos these below come up very large in the waist..

Can i also recommend to everyone that if you want a more exaggerated or extreme drop similar to the Okini, then G star have a great new range , i only seen them in a dark grey presently in the flagship shop in covent garden similar to these..

the second link is a womens pair, but this is an example of what will be droppinf from them soon.

hasta pronto hombres

I have a ?. If you were to take in boot cut jeans towards the bottom. Could it pass for carrot jeans.

Everyone, Here is a link to show how the drop crotch jeans are going to massive this year, chunky knits and bow ties as featured on this site some two months ago can all be seen in this autumn/winter 2010 site…..enjoy this new style away from the skinny jeans…

Jacob kamara

I absolutely love the drop crotch style, I have plenty of pairs of them from all saints, aqua courture, and my personal favourite the sandy humor pants, but even from shops like zara and river island,

I absolutely love this style and I have so many pairs of them all from allsaints, aqau but I am the proud owner of them humor sandy pants I love them tempted to buy the topman 23:23 jox too.

love em being trying to find a place in Melbourne that sell em anybody know would really help me out

Does anyone know where i can find some drop crotch shorts? Ready for summer?

Shorts I guarantee will be here by summer 2010 but as yet I have no idea where to get them, however my latest article may inspire you to tailor your own , as soon as I know of a retailer stocking drop shorts I’ll update.

Hmm… it seems like almost everyone is giving this trend a positive response. Probably most of you guys are obsessed fashionistas following every single trend.

I must admit I’m a fan of skinny jeans although the trend pretty much hinted that you borrowed them from your girlfriend’s.

As for the drop crotch jeans, I must say I would never jump aboard this trend. Seriously, lets save it for the ladies. They do it so much better. Some things are unisex but not let this be. It looked like the baggy trend for rappers had sex with skinny trend for wannabe and real rockstars alike. As a result, the bastard child drop crotch pants came to be.

The proportions of these pants are just not at all good any way. We are not all born with oversized testes thankyou!

NARONG – is it just the heavy drop crotch your not a fan of??
Are you into the carrot shape / Gun trousers?? Or are you solely a skinny man?

great artical all over the deep crotch atm loadin up on my humor collection,anyone know where i can grab a pair of the grey huor pants from oki- outta stock alraedy

Hey guys. New to the site, and just jumping aboard the deep crotch bandwagon. Liking a few pairs from All Saints, namely the “Sputnik’s”. Also like the Humors. And when im going for the hood look lol, might get the Topman Jox. However I am quite small, about 5 ft 6, and wondering if anybody has got any of the ones I have mentioned and will think they will suit my height? And regarding the Jox, im not chubby, but have SLIGHTLY big thighs, so should I go for a medium or large instead of a tighter small? Would be really helpful if someone could explain how they fit. Thanks

When I saw this trend first appear i loved it since my thighs decided i had to sit out the skinny jeans trend. But now i’ve seen so many girls working the trend , i can’t bring myself to wear them. I don’t think we as males claimed it quick enough! The ugg boot for example, just as many men than women wear them down under, but because when they arrived here the ladies jumped on the bandwaggon first, mens ugg boots were much slower to take off and are still ‘off limits’ to many men (the term ‘mugg’ boots comes to mind).I believe the same fate lies for the drop-crotch trend. I think its bad enough if I spot another guy wearing the same clothes when I’m out, but to come out matching the girls? I just think some trends can’t be mixed between the sexes and this is one of them.

ANIL – I think you will probably look really good in Drop crotches, they’re great for really tall guys and shorter guys.

I am not massively tall and I think really deep drops look better on me, you’ll probably find the same works for you.

I love the Jox from Topman, I would say the M, you might get drowned in the Large ones and loose the effect of the drop crotch.

KEVINMIXIN – Oh my days, everyone is trying to get there hands on those Infamous OKI-NI’s
They’re are always out of stock. Grrrrrr!!!
If I manage to find an un-turned (HUMOUR) stone I will keep you posted.

DOM – I understand where you’re coming from on the Doppelgänger front, but most women’s fashions are completely androgynous, these days, and there’s not much that women don’t don (and look great in). I think if we try and gender specify, us as men are going to be left with um………… In fact I cant think of a single thing.

Jacob – I just brought a pair today. Can I just state that I literally am in love with All Saints lol. Online doesnt do the store justice, I went into the Birmningham store today and it was amazing. I got the “Milliners”, and I think they are great for £55, they look top! I would of got another few different pairs if I had the dough on me! Will be going back over the next few weeks to pick some more up.

Yeah I might get drowned in the large, just waiting for the Medium to come in stock online now!

By the way, there is a picture of you on another page on this site of you in a pair of drop crotches, did you make/alter those yourself?
