Red cotton pants have been a summer staple in New England for many years. Specifically the faded Nantucket red made famous in the Cape Cod area. Over the past few seasons this time-tested preppy staple has morphed into a vibrant, slim cut modern summer essential. For those looking for razor-sharp styling and full saturation of color there’s DSquared2’s appropriately named “Glam Rock” pants. For slightly less you can get a whole lot. Etro is known for their fabrics and these pants (below, top row on the left) are no exception. Perfectly cut and finished in bright red cotton these are a great investment.
If you want the look for less one of the best options might be Dockers slim fit Alpha Khakis in Sahara Red on sale for $45.00. The Dockers don’t have the full saturation of color and the fit is more tailored than slim. In the mid-price range there’s Topman and Tommy. Both are bright and priced around $100 (Topman more, Tommy less). Topman’s pants are slim fit with some styling extras. The Tommy Hilfiger pants are not slim fit but have a great true red color.
