LESTRANGE’s 360° trousers, as part of its 360° range, will slot into any man’s wardrobe with ease (and without the need for an iron)
Words: Zak Maoui
How many times have you tried to pack up a bag for a short business trip that your boss has sent you off on at the last minute and come to the conclusion that none (none!) of your stuff is good enough? Your shirts crease as soon as you take them off their hangers. Your trousers look as though you’ve already been on a long-haul flight in them. Those jackets you depend on? Far too heavy, and definitely not comfortable enough for travel, however long or short the journey.
Well LESTRANGE, the British brand that has based its ethos around making things easier for guys everywhere to get dressed and go, has designed and dropped a rather special 360° Capsule. Your answer to those business trips where you’ll have to go from home to plane to meeting, the capsule collection comprises the 360° Trouser, the 360° Jacket and the 360° Blazer, each of which can be paired up with anything else in the LESTRANGE product offering to create an easy-to-wear, modular look.
Each piece in the collection, which has been designed by the in-house design team at LESTRANGE with modern travellers with hectic schedules in mind, is made using premium Japanese fabrics, such as 360TechWeave™, which has been given PFC-free water-resistant finishes, or 360TechKnit™ infused with four-way stretch cut from 100 per cent renewable or recycled materials, resulting in the minimal products your 24/7 wardrobe needs. In short, everything in the range has been designed to fit around your lifestyle, and to leave you looking and feeling your best, no matter what life throws at you, be it business meeting in the sky or last minute round of golf with the boss.
For us, the 360° Trouser stands as the shiny nucleus at the centre of the collection, and really have the versatility required to see you from day to night, plane to boardroom, and back again. Cut from the aforementioned 360TechKnit™, a technical fabric with four-way stretch, the trousers need little to no ironing, and are extremely reactive to the needs of busy guys - they’re durable and machine washable. Cut-wise, they come in a classic fit, which adds a level of versatility that means they can be dressed up with a shirt or down with a T-shirt. What’s more, should you back them, the trousers will come out of your case wrinkle-free. Now that’s a win.
When it comes to comfort, the 360° Trouser is unrivalled, and we’ve found that we’ve been living in a pair. But we aren’t alone. LESTRANGE has won over fans such as Tom Holland and recent benefactor Jenson Button, who are avid wearers of the brand’s ready-for-everyday clothing. The trousers have comfort at their core - they’re cut from the super soft Japanese fabric as well as recycled polyester - and have an unrestricted stretch in all directions, whether you’re sitting atop a bicycle or embracing that long haul flight from London to Los Angeles.

When paired with the 360° Jacket and Blazer, you’ve got yourself a wardrobe that can take you seamlessly from the departure lounge to a meeting without looking like you’ve really flown at all. The jacket is made from a technical, water-resistant fabric with, just like the 360° Trousers, a four-way stretch, developed in Nomi, Japan. Meanwhile the fully lined 360° Blazer is cut from the same fabric, and has an unstructured, lightweight form for supreme comfort. Again, luckily for you, both don’t need ironing…
