Taos Boys' Midnight Blue Chino Pants

This fabric is a military-style cotton gabardine weighing 210 g/m², making it sturdy and durable while remaining versatile enough to ensure optimal comfort. Designed to be ready for dyeing, it has been specially treated to absorb and retain colors in a subtle and nuanced way. The fabric is also pre-washed in-house, giving it a pleasant softness and a peach-skin feel. Gabardine is known for its tight diagonal weave, offering excellent resistance to wear and weather, making it an ideal choice for military clothing as well as other everyday uses requiring durability and performance.

Our manufacturing process embodies Hartford’s commitment to high-quality, sustainable production. We prioritize local sourcing, with 80% of our products manufactured in the Mediterranean region (Morocco, Portugal, Italy), while the remainder is produced worldwide based on the origin of materials and local expertise—such as in India for certain prints or embroidery, or in China for certain specialty wools, for example. We rely on long-term partnerships, synonymous with reliability and expertise: 50% of our products are manufactured by partners we’ve worked with for over 20 years, and 80% by partners we’ve worked with for over 10 years. Finally, we prioritize contract manufacturing (60% of production) by sourcing materials ourselves in Europe, thereby ensuring full traceability and access to the finest European natural materials.
