OFF-WHITE™ DELIVERS PAINT-SPLATTERED WORK PANTS FOR FW19

Though they didn’t hit the Fall/Winter 2019 runway, Off-White™‘s recent graffiti-covered goodsrecently began rolling out to stockists around the globe. The most recent drop includes a pair of paint-splattered work pants, an item indicative of the brand’s playful approach to undermining workwear staples. Unlike Off-White™’s recent Futura collaboration, the jeans sport random paint splatters as opposed to Futura’s intentional scrawl, with a more expansive color palette granting the white jeans a touch of wanton playfulness, along with various black splashes for contrast. The pants are cut with a straight leg fit to achieve the effortlessly slouchy styling often courted by designer Virgil Abloh, complete with distressing down the outseam and hems for extra texture. A long, branded shoelace belt allows for an adjustable fit. Grab a pair of Off-White™’s seasonal jeans on Moda Operandi’s site for $855 USD.
