Extendable trouser legs
How do you lengthen your work trousers?
An extendable hem, or double finished hem, allows you to easily lengthen your work trousers and add an additional 5cm to the trouser legs. Because the hem is double finished, the trouser legs will still look neat at the hem.
Why do work trousers have an extendable hem, you might wonder? Well, people come in different shapes and sizes. You might have a short torso with long legs, a long torso with short legs, or another body proportion. When you are looking for the perfect size of work trousers, an extendable hem is your perfect ally to creating that perfect length.
Especially when wearing knee pocket trousers, it is crucial that your kneepads arrive at the right height. We recommend you choose your work trousers based upon the height of your knee pockets and use the extendable hem to easily lengthen them out.
