Chekovers

Chekovers

Were you to find yourself in the snowy bounds of Russia amongst the aristocracy of the 19th century, you might have heard more than one reference to a brilliant and dapper young writer by the name of Anton Chekhov, an understated genius who managed a career as both a devoted physician and luminous literary talent with stunning aplomb. And in that elegant milieu, you may have found yourself in a pair of heavyweight wool slacks sharp enough to impress a young Tsarina, warm enough to push back the chill of the dark Muscovy night. In fact, we have a hunch that a pair of Bonobos Chekovers would have just done the trick. Because these are no ordinary slacks.

The Chekovers feature a stylishly classic multicolor pattern of overcheck houndstooth. They are crafted here in the U.S.A., with fabric from the legendary Woolrich® mill, a company whose pedigree stretches back to the year 1830, making it the oldest woolen mill in America. And the Chekovers are substantial – these are real-deal wool pants, made from a rich fabric that speaks of an entirely different era of quality and craftsmanship; an age when clothing truly meant something, and a brilliant young doctor and a brilliant young writer could be one in the same.
