Choosing by silhouette
With pants, the silhouette alone defines the whole look.
BASISBROEK means “basic pants” in Dutch. Pants are the core of the brand, and we have always focused on silhouette, comfort, and the character of the fabric itself.
For 2026SS, the lineup features five pairs — wide, straight, and tapered — each with a clear personality of its own.
This feature walks through the differences by silhouette and how to choose. A pair that is simple yet has depth, for your everyday.
REGULAR | The standard silhouette, beyond trends
Room through the hip, then a sharp taper from the knee.
A curve found nowhere else, adding depth to simple outfits, pulling the look together, and giving a sharp impression.
A category where the silhouette itself takes the lead — the brand’s character, distilled.
WISKEN -NYLON- | 173 cm, size 2
The waist drawcord lets you freely adjust the silhouette. A pair that suits any footwear and a wide range of styles.
ALBION | 173 cm, size 3
A straight line — never too slim — balances the whole figure and flatters the way you stand. A touch of extra room in the rise adds a modern ease.
TAPERED | A three-dimensional silhouette that reads sharp
Room through the hip, then a gradual taper from the knee.
A curve found nowhere else, adding depth to simple outfits, pulling the look together, and giving a sharp impression.
A category where the silhouette itself takes the lead.
BRAVON | 173 cm, size 3
The distinctive, full silhouette gives it a pleasantly relaxed look. The gentle taper toward the ankle balances the whole figure for a beautiful line.
WIDE | The statement silhouette, wrapped in air
Today, the wide silhouette sits at the center of how we choose pants.
Its appeal lies in a relaxed fit and a balance that naturally captures the mood of the moment.
BASISBROEK’s wide pants come in three distinct expressions, shaped by fabric and design. From full-length to shorts, there is a pair to suit the season and your style.
ALEN -NYLON- | 173 cm, size 3
Beyond the width the pleat provides, the hem drawcord can be drawn in for a tapered silhouette. Styles easily from casual to classic.
MOON | 173 cm, size 3
A generously cut waist and hip fall straight into a wide silhouette. The cropped length leaves a light, airy space at the ankle, so the line stays refined and never feels heavy despite its volume.
Regular — beyond trends.
Wide — for volume.
Tapered — to lengthen the line.
Knowing the differences between silhouettes makes choosing a pair much clearer. From BASISBROEK, where fabric and comfort are never compromised, find the pair that suits your style.
