On certain days, choosing what to wear to work can be a long, drawn-out process that many gentlemen do not have the energy to go through.

Trousers are key; they shape your outfit and truly help separate a gentleman from a man. So, follow our guide for 5 of the most stylish work trousers of all time and we guarantee that your morning life will become a little bit easier.

The Classic

You can’t go wrong with the classic chino; the right pair is the absolute perfect addition to any working wardrobe. This pair is a modern take on an old classic: the tailoring is as crucial as the colour, and Paul Smith London ticks both boxes here. Wear with a sharp shirt and your favourite blazer and you’re good to go.

The Trend-Led

These trousers are great for any gentleman working in a more casual environment – one that isn’t afraid to mix things up when it comes to his style. This Beams Plus pair look fantastic when slightly rolled up and will go well with a classic blue sweater. A word of advice: avoid other pieces in similar tones.
