When it comes to comfort, casualness and style, you can usually only pick two in any given item. But when the designers at Ovadia & Sons and Gap — along with the arbiters of manly style at GQ Magazine — put their heads together, you’re bound to break some rules.
The global Gap x GQ collaboration launched earlier this month, featuring capsule collections from some of the best menswear designers the world has to offer, including Ian Velardi, Mark McNairy, Ovadia & Sons, Todd Snyder and BLK DNM’s J. Lindebergh.
Crafted by the old-world-inspired duo Ariel and Shimon Ovadia, this pair of Gap x GQ Ovadia & Sons wool cargo pants goes for $78 at Gap locations at the Eaton Centre, Yorkdale Shopping Centre and Queen West, which just got them in yesterday.
The slim cut and low rise give you a sharp silhouette while the wool-blend material keeps you warm, all without losing that effortlessly casual edge. Pair them with a navy blazer if you want to dress them up for a Friday at the office, or with a brown leather, military-style jacket to channel your urban warrior. In either case, a pair of well-worn boots completes the look — think work chukkas from Red Wing Heritage.
$78. Available at The Gap Eaton Centre, 220 Yonge St., 416-599-8802; or online through The Gap’s webshop
