26 Men’s Corduroy Pants Outfit Ideas & Styling Tips

Corduroy pants – despite its name translating from French to ‘cord of the King,’ the idea of its coolness is still in question. GQ writer Yang-Yi Goh said that corduroy pants are a great clothing choice for your lower half.

Tips When Buying for New Corduroy Pants

  • The Fit. When getting new corduroy trousers, think of them as your hair – get the right cut.
  • Colours. Purchase colours you are comfortable wearing, so disregard the current fashion trends if necessary. If you are getting vibrant corduroy clothing, it’s wise to dry-clean them only and not wash them at home.
  • For Starters. Corduroy fabric may not be advisable if you are prone to overheating. Because of its tight knitting, it remains warm as long as you keep it dry. Also, they don’t drape as much as other heavy wool fabrics.

Yellow corduroy pants look dope with tops in shades of brown, blue and dark red. If your pants are in a brighter hue of yellow, go for a subtle and dark tone for your top. You can easily pair them with white button-down shirts for a simple and casual daytime look.

As you know, monochrome style doesn’t mean you have to be in an all-out single colour. Grey, brown and black combined would make a monochromatic look. Wearing a cord allows you to work the wonders of this style. For your footwear, choose between loafers, suedes and brogues.

As the texture feels distinguished, making corduroy blend in with a more formal look doesn’t take much. Opt for a sharper, more tailored, slim fit. Brown is the default choice, but you can mess things up a bit – choose a dark or rich jewel tone.
