Classic Balenciaga Trousers Full Leg "jeans" Styling size French 36 (2)





Hi all,

These are the classic Balenciaga trousers with a seam down the front of the leg. There was a point in my life where I had these very pants in wool (for winter, in the office), corduroy (summer!), beige linen/cotton (spring!).

So, I went a little overboard. I bought these, and because I broke the zipper before I even had a chance to wear them, never repaired them, I never wore them. They still have the tag from Barneys in them ($199 on sale from $425.)

Balenciaga is, these days, so expensive I don't even bother to walk that direction in the store.

Here's a review:

Condition: the zipper needs to be replaced. They are brand new (with tags and everything.)
Material: 65% cotton, 35% flax (would one call this a type of twill? I'm not sure...if you know, please write it in the comments!)

Two pockets in front.
Two in back.
Belt loops.
Hook and button closure.
Full leg.

Measurements:

Waist: 29"
Inseam: 36"
Rise: 10"



I would typically wear a French 34 in Balenciaga pants, but these are fine for me (25 Acne, 24 everything else) if I'm going for a full legged look. These could fit someone who typically wears US 2 or 4.

Paid: $199+tax from $425
Asking: $100 shipped. Add $13 to Canada and $20 elsewhere. Here is your chance to own Balenciaga! Woo!

Listing end: Feb. 4, 2010. Or later. Leave email/paypal in comments!
