Hello! I'm Haru, a fashion geek!!
I introduced VALAADO in my second blog post.
Back then, I had only just started the blog,
and I was introducing items while still
finding my footing.
Reading it back now,
I think, "I could have expressed that better,"
but on the other hand,
it was a post that made me glad I started the blog,
as some regular customers actually came to buy
VALAADO after reading it.
The VALAADO I’m introducing this time is the same
REL model as that one, but I’d like to introduce it again
using only the words I can say now, based on my actual
experience wearing it for several months.
Let’s get right into it!
VALAADO
-REL-WT-001-4-
col.BLACK
col.CHARCOAL
col.BROWN
The ultimate slacks, created by taking
TEN, one of VALAADO's signature models,
and giving it an easy-slacks specification.
The waistband is elastic with a drawstring
for comfort, and it includes belt loops,
making it suitable for tucking in tops
or when you want to wear a belt.
Personally, I used to shy away from easy pants
because they would wrinkle at the waist
when you pulled the string tight.
However, because VALAADO's easy trousers
use ribbing at the waist,
there are no wrinkles when you cinch the string,
and the ribbing also provides a fit around
the waist that you don't find in normal pants.
After wearing VALAADO for several months,
the thing I feel most is that they are the
most comfortable pants I own!
I used to believe that when it comes to fashion,
you shouldn't choose comfort over style,
so I would buy distressed denim.
I still hold that belief, but...
I also realized there's nothing wrong with
enjoying style while being comfortable.
When I’m struggling with a styling or want to
enjoy fashion without worrying about the weather,
this is a pair so comfortable and beautiful
that I find myself reaching for it naturally.
Personally, this REL is what I always wore when
taking an overnight bus to Tokyo for concerts and events;
the wrinkles around the seat don't bother me,
and because the center crease is fixed with
pin-tucks, they maintain a beautiful silhouette
permanently, so they look great at all times.
Moreover, while they are labeled for hand-washing,
they are versatile slacks that can be machine-washed
if you put them in a laundry net on a delicate cycle.
I can't find a single flaw; in fact, I’m even thinking
of buying another pair of the same BLACK REL,
but a feature of the 26SS collection is the new fabric.
It’s a twill fabric made using non-mulesed wool
and recycled polyester yarn, offering
the perfect amount of crispness and luster.
It remains a versatile, wrinkle-resistant,
easy-care material, but compared to the 25AW season,
it feels even smoother against the skin.
It has shifted to a more wearable, seasonal SS fabric,
and surprisingly... the price has gone down!!
In this day and age, it’s normal for prices to rise,
so it’s quite rare for a brand to lower them.
The REL by VALAADO, the ultimate slacks,
is now officially available in store and online!
If you're looking for slacks, this is a must-see!!
