Green Embroidered Trousers

An Architecture for Motion, in the Color of Deep Water.

Introducing The Reservoir Trouser from Empty Reference—a piece that treats the lower body as a site for both kinetic intelligence and serene composition. Crafted from a fluid, lightweight polyester in a profound lagoon green, these trousers borrow the ease and readiness of sportswear, translating it into a clean, straight-leg silhouette designed for urban traversal. The foundational innovation lies at the waist: a hybrid system featuring a clean elastic back, a channel for an optional belt, and a functional black internal drawstring—granting the wearer total command over fit and form. From the knee downward, precision-sewn structural seams trace the sides of each leg, introducing a graphic, architectural tension that catches the light and defines movement. A final, quiet assertion: a branded rubberized logo tab affixed to the left thigh, a subtle seal on a garment built for considered action.

🧩 A Blueprint for Adaptive Wear:

✔ Fluid Laguna Polyester - A technical, lightweight fabric chosen for its dynamic drape, effortless care, and a subtle sheen that deepens the rich green hue, offering comfort that moves with you.
✔ Hybrid Adjustable Waist System - Combines the ease of an elastic back with the structure of a belt-ready channel and the personal precision of an internal drawstring. Fit is not given; it is curated by the wearer.
✔ Architectural Knee-Seam Detailing - The defining visual element: sharp, structural seams that emerge from the knee and descend alongside the calf. These are not mere decoration but lines that map potential movement, adding a graphic, modern rigor.
✔ The Empty Reference on “The Dynamic Base” - We design from the premise that clothing should facilitate, not restrict. These trousers are a reservoir of potential—for motion, for style, for adaptation. They are the calm, intelligent foundation upon which daily life is built.
✔ Straight-Leg Urban Silhouette - A universally flattering, medium-weight straight cut that bridges the gap between track pants and tailored trousers, equally suited for focused activity and composed leisure.

🏗️ The Anatomy of a Kinetic Base:

The Seam as a Trajectory: The lines descending from the knee are deliberate annotations on the body’s form. They act as visual guides, emphasizing the vertical and creating a sense of engineered precision. They are the pant’s architectural signature, turning simple movement into a study of geometry.

The Waist as an Interface: The triple-threat waistband—elastic, belt-ready, drawstring-equipped—is a manifesto of adaptable utility. It acknowledges that the body and the day are not static, providing the tools for micro-adjustments in comfort and silhouette, from desk to bike to evening out.

The Color as an Atmosphere: Lagoon green is neither neon nor mute. It is a color of depth and liquidity, reminiscent of a still body of water or polished stone. It acts as a sophisticated, statement neutral that pairs unexpectedly well with both earth tones and stark black or white.

Styling the Structural Foundation: Consider this your go-to intelligent pant. Wear it with a boxy white tee and sleek sneakers for elevated minimalism. Layer a heavyweight knit or a technical jacket over it for textural contrast. Its sport-derived DNA allows it to seamlessly integrate into athleisure looks, while its clean lines and unique color make it a standout paired with a simple button-down or tailored blazer. It is for the designer, the urban explorer, the mover—anyone who requires their base layer to be as considered as their outer statement.
