Wadi Pants: Comfortable even in the heat of summer
Introducing the Wadi Pants, a new release from HOUDINI that can be worn comfortably even during Japan’s hot and humid summer.
【HOUDINI】M’s Wadi Pants
PRICE : ¥19,800 (tax included)
COLOR : Baremark Green, Misty Beach, Willow Green
SIZE : S, M, L
Liquid Rock™: A highly functional fabric
These are made from "Liquid Rock™," a material with excellent quick-drying and breathable properties, ensuring a smooth, dry feel even when worn for long periods. They are also very lightweight and packable, making them perfect for travel or bike touring.
Stretch and 3D patterning that follows every movement
Their appeal lies in their clean, stylish silhouette that still offers plenty of room, making them great for outdoor scenes or daily casual wear. The silhouette is crafted with a 3D pattern to prioritize ease of movement, and when combined with the fabric's natural stretch, it results in pants that adapt smoothly to any motion.
Easy waist adjustment without a belt
Belts are great for securing your waist, but they can often be heavy or uncomfortable, especially in the heat of summer. While the Wadi Pants feature belt loops for those who want to use one, they also have a drawstring made of the same material inside, allowing you to adjust the fit without a belt. It makes them easy to put on and take off, and keeps your waist area comfortable even in the sweltering heat.
Adjustable hem for various situations
The drawstrings at the hem allow you to cinch them up, which is very useful when riding a bike or playing by the river. Notably, there is no plastic stopper on these strings. You might think that sounds inconvenient at first glance, but they are easy to tie. This design is actually a result of HOUDINI’s consideration for environmental issues.
By the way, Takumi, who is 174cm tall, is wearing the men's size M.
I’m considering getting a pair for this summer myself, but I have a dilemma.
As it is a Nordic brand, the length is quite long.
Well, that’s true for all overseas brands, regardless of whether they’re from Northern Europe or elsewhere; the length is just always a bit too long.
No matter what I wear, I always think, "If only my legs were a little longer..."
You could get them hemmed, but that’s not really an option for outdoor pants that have drawstrings at the bottom. So, what should I do?
In times like this, you should try the women's model.
Recommended for men too! The women's model
【HOUDINI】W’s Wadi Pants
PRICE : ¥19,800 (tax included)
COLOR : Baremark Green, Misty Beach
SIZE : XXS, XS, S, M, L, XL
Of course, the pattern and some details differ between the men's and women's versions, but I can wear the women's version without any issues at all.
The advantage of the length
By the way, I’m wearing the women’s size M.
I could wear the size S, but I chose the M because it gives me a bit more room around the waist.
I’ve compared it to the men's size S, so please take a look.

M’s size S
If you are a man concerned about the length, please don’t be afraid to try the women's model.
Oh, and it goes without saying that it's recommended for women as well, since it is a women's model.
The model is 155cm tall and is wearing the women's size XS.
HOUDINI has also restocked various other items such as the Wadi Shorts, Cover Crew, and Cosmo Shirts.
These are all great items that will help you stay comfortable through the coming season, so be sure to check them out as well.
While I'm at it, I'm trying to grow my Instagram following, so if you're interested, please follow me (@yannku_circles). I show everything from my casual daily life to the fake persona I’ve crafted. It might just be all about bikes though...
