This is a cool style, but it’s one many of us in London have been doing for years – decades even. From the modernists of the fifties to the mods of the sixties and the rude boy revivalists of the late seventies up to today – it’s familiar territory in this neck of the woods. The inherent conservatism of so much American menswear seems to make Thom Browne more radical than he really is; refreshing yes, radical hardly. Granted he may be responsible for the current popularity of the cropped look, but there is a pre-Thom Browne history which should also be recognised.

I saw this in Copenhagen as well. Even the stores in the capital city are styling the mannequins in such a way. I really enjoy the look.

I remember wearing this style back in my more “punk”days. Glad to see it’s still in good force!

Yeah, I’ve been rolling my chinos and denim all summer as well. My style tends to get preppier as the temp goes up.

You really need the right shoes for this to work though. Especially with Top-siders… I hate the way they look with unrolled pants, so rolling is a must for me.

And I must admit, I’m with Rich, J.Crew was definitely a big influence.

Ive been a fan of the look pre thome browne based on the j crew catalog, which i always thought was mostly to show the shoe.

oddly enough Esquire advises one to never roll their pants.

Wow, I like that last picture and I normally hate ankle socks.

Any pictures of you in your rolled up APCs?
I think I look a little silly in mine.
