STYLEWISE: Dockers Camo Alpha Khaki Pant

For those of you who don’t frequent the blog. Last week we unveiled a new segment called SPOTLIGHT. Well we decided to drop that name altogether and call it STYLEWISE . We also decided that instead of just shirts and t-shirts, that all stand-out pieces like denim, jackets, accessories etc. Will all have a chance to make it onto our STYLEWISE segment. 

For today’s STYLWISE segment we chose the Dockers Camo Alpha Khaki Pant. With camo being the shit right now we browsed numerous camo pants but found this pair the most appealing. The fit is proper and not to slim and the new heavyweight khaki fabric gives the pants a unique texture. ($65)

Available at Urban Outfitters.
