Question 1

Choosing Your Size

Accepted Answer

In this article, you'll find our advice on choosing the right trouser or jacket size. Let's get started!

Choosing the right size is an important part of any online clothing purchase. So we've put together a comprehensive guide to help you.

I. Determining your trouser size

Our first piece of advice is not to rely on your usual size in other clothing brands.

Why not?

Many brands use vanity sizing.
Size conversions between different measurement systems are often hazardous.

Instead, here are two quick and easy ways to find your SCAVINI trouser size.

Method n°1 - Measuring your waist size

All you need is a measuring tape. The recommended clothing is a simple T-shirt or dress shirt. Avoid thick clothing, which will bias the measurement.

Place the measuring tape around your waist. It should be between your navel and the top of your pelvic bones. In other words, between the thinnest part of your waist and the widest. Generally speaking, 1 or 2 centimeters (0.4-0.8 in) below your navel is a good reference point.

Bear in mind that your trousers need to be tight against your body to stay in place! So apply the same amount of pressure with your tape measure.

Read the result. You'll get a number generally between 74 and 100 centimeters (29 and 39 in).

**Convert to centimeters if needed and divide th

Question 2

About our Trousers Cuts

Accepted Answer

We currently offer 4 cuts in our trouser collection:

The Classic cut
The One-Pleat cut
The Two-Pleats cut
The Gurkha cut

For the sake of simplicity, it can be distinguished according to two main criteria.

General appearance: Straight cuts and fitted cuts.
Details: Simple (belt loops, no pleats) or tailored (side adjusters, pleats, more assertive style).

Here is a reference table to help you make your choice, according to your preferences:

| | Straight cuts | Tapered cuts | | ---- | | Simple details | S2 / Classic cut | | | Tailored details | S3 / One-Pleat cutGS / Gurkha cut | S4 / Two-Pleats cut |

You can find out more about all these cuts and their particularities on the Trouser Cut Guide.

| Your trouser size is the same across our entire range, regardless of the cut. EXCEPT in the case of the S4 / Two-Piece cut, which runs small.
| It is strongly recommended to choose one size larger than your other SCAVINI trousers.

Question 4

Caring for Your Garments

Accepted Answer

In this article you will find some tips on how to get the longest possible shelf life from your Scavini clothing.

Foreword - Choosing the right size, the right fit and the right material

Before talking about routine maintenance, it is important to make sure that the item you are going to purchase fits you and your body type.

Trousers that are too tight will wear out more quickly than trousers that are the right size or too big. This is because the pressure on the seams and friction on the fabric caused by a size that is too small can lead to deterioration.

Here are some articles that may be of interest to you if you want to learn more about the subject:

It is also wise to choose trousers in a material that suits your daily activities and constraints. Indeed, trousers are a garment that wears out faster than a jacket.

The most robust materials are those made of cotton. This is also the case for very dense wools such as Whipcord.
Conversely, flannels and tweeds are sensitive to abrasion.

| It is therefore recommended to avoid these noble but more delicate materials for intensive use or for men who cycle regularly (to commute to work for example).

Question 5

What alterations are possible?

Accepted Answer

For the sake of quality, our trousers are designed so that they can be altered to suit as many people as possible.

The length of the trousers

The most obvious point of this policy is the length of our trousers. Our trousers have a default inseam length of approximately 95 centimeters.

This allows our team in the shop, or your local tailor, to adjust the trousers to the right length. So, whatever your size, the length of your trousers will always be perfect! This service is also available for online orders (but not recommended if it is your first order).

In addition, the trousers can be finished at the bottom with a choice of :

Invisible hems
Stitched hems (jeans type)
Split hems
Cuffs / Turn-ups (4 or 5 centimetres)

Other alterations

It is also possible to make other alterations.

We can widen or narrow :

The waistband
The crotch
The legs

Finally, it is possible to have the belt loops of our S1 / Fitted and S2 / Classic models replaced by side adjusters.
