How is everyone doing?
I, for one, love them.
People may say they don't suit me, but I love the 501. Even now, for one reason or another, I rotate through a few pairs, and I've still got a couple of brand-new ones sleeping in my closet...
When it comes to American casual style, the first pair of pants that comes to mind is definitely the 501.
(I'm sure there are many others, but let’s just leave it at that for now.)
So, does CIRCLES have anything like that?
Well then, let me introduce you to this.
When you think of the 501, you think of a staple you can always wear, and if you wear them out, you just get another pair... In that sense, I think these swrve jeans could be called the Levi's 501 of CIRCLES.
They have a comfortable straight fit—wait, what does that even mean?—and I highly recommend them to people who find slim cuts a bit too much and prefer a slightly fuller line.
The belt loops are made of reflective material...
There’s a pocket perfectly sized for a mobile phone...
Even though they’re stretch material, they have articulated knees...
Plus, the inside of the right leg has a reflective print for when you roll them up; they look simple at a glance, but they’re actually packed with thoughtful features.
The stitching color, buttons, and pocket lining are all well-considered, further stimulating the desire to buy.
The photos show them unwashed, but they get even better with wear.
I’d like to keep all sizes in stock, but it’s hard to make that happen... sorry about that.
And one more pair!
The small details like the pockets and belt loops are the same as the regular fit.
The difference lies in the cut and color.
Unlike the regular, this is a clean, slim cut, and the color is such a deep blue you might mistake it for black.
Actually, these move faster in the store, and our staff wears them more often, too.
They’re also made of a highly stretchy material, and everyone is surprised at how easy they are to move in despite the tight silhouette once they try them on.
They really do move well!
Both are absolute staples at Circles.
They are simple, timeless, and built to last.
While I'm at it, I should introduce these, too.
A well-known American workwear brand: Dickies.
They’ve been sitting in the corner at Circles for a while, but actually, we’ve switched to a new model.
You see a lot of "bespoke" items these days, but what we have at Circles is the real deal—the kind of model actually listed in the American catalog.
Dickies
WP873 Slim Straight Fit Work Pant ¥6,300
COLOR:BLACK, DARK NAVY, CHARCOAL, KHAKI
The fabric is the standard, sturdy cotton-polyester blend.
The cut is slim but not overly so, with a cleaner silhouette than the classic 874 and a slightly lower rise. It’s a genuinely good shape—a pair anyone can wear anywhere, anytime.
And one more pair.
Dickies
WP811 Skinny Fit Double Knee Work Pant ¥6,300
COLOR:BLACK, DARK NAVY, DESERT SAND, SILVER GREY
This is, as the name suggests, a skinny fit—quite slim.
I wear a 30-inch in the 873, but here I’m wearing a 32-inch. The waist is a bit large, but I like wearing them low on the hips.
By the way, here’s what it looks like wearing a 30-inch.
It’s definitely slim!
I recommend people with slim legs wear them true to size.
The fabric is cotton and polyester with a bit of spandex mixed in for high elasticity.
In any case, both are tough.
Wear them hard without worrying about them getting dirty, and if they rip, just repair them... they are daily wear for anyone, anytime.
They are also recommended for people who have poured too much money into their bikes and are hesitating to spend much on apparel. Haha.
