When the Romans first met the ancient Teuton tribe, it was clear that barbarians were standing in front of them - after all, the bearded giants from the north didn’t wear a tunic (like decent people), but dressed in trousers instead. In the meantime, the fashion world in Italy saw things very differently and the reason is obvious: trousers are simply practical, cozy and offer many different ways to design your outfit. In addition - a fact which the Romans who escaped from warm southern Europe would appreciate - they are significantly warmer than a toga or tunic. Even if you don’t just walk through the dark forests of Germania with your spear in your hand, trousers are one very useful item, especially in colder weather.
Buy the right trousers for every occasion
Two legs, three pockets, buttons or zip - done? Absolutely not. Trousers have developed a multitude of different cuts and styles in their centuries of history and the possibilities are now almost endless. Those who prefer light and airy are well served with the equally practical and casual Brandit trousers. Cargo pants and chinos, from Black Premium to Rock Rebel by EMP in loose streetwear styles can also be found in the EMP online shop, as well as trousers for work.
You can easily get very cosy with this comfortable classic garment: Nothing says "relaxation" as much as struggling on the couch with cozy sweatpants. Of course, you are not always lazing at home or active on the sports field. If you are looking for pants that are suitable for special occasions, you can’t go wrong with Dickies trousers or chic leather pants. If leather trousers make you think of Bavarian costumes, you better think again: Under this category you will find tight-fitting, chic leather pants that are perfect for bikers. The robust and unusual designs are also very popular in the goth scene. Either way you will find what you are looking for at Burleska, Punk Rave or the cult brand Gothicana by EMP. And of course great classics from rock culture are not missing either:
Robust, rebellious: jeans for everyone
Hardly any form of trousers belongs to rock, punk and metal as much as jeans. The resistant materials are really at home anywhere. Contrary to what most people think, the fabric doesn't actually come from the USA, but was developed in France as work clothes. The name "Denim" indicates their western European origin, but the classic cut of jeans was developed in the USA, and it has persisted to this day. Of course! These trousers are as versatile as they are timelessly cool.
The EMP online shop has the right jeans for every scene and every taste. The cuts and washes are very diverse. Tight, wide and boot cut for real rockers, as well as stonewash, acid wash and bleached models. For casual style in everyday life, we recommend the range from Urban Classics or RED by EMP, which are as practical as they are elegant. If you are looking for the right clothes for a concert or festival, you are definitely well looked after with the rock models from Rock Rebel by EMP, Forplay and the extra loud collection Full Volume by EMP. Real fans can also always carry their favourite band close to them with the trousers from the Black Premium by EMP Signature Collection, whether AC / DC, Metallica, Iron Maiden or Motörhead. Rock your jeans, rock your life, rock on!
Trousers are not just for men
It used to be a scandal when women wore trousers, which is strange when you can clearly see that women also have two legs. A woman's ankle was sometimes even visible, which led to outrage in society - so much so that it boosted the sales of smelling salts. Today the situation with women’s clothes looks very different. In the EMP online shop, women can also buy trousers that are perfect for their individual taste without any problem.
The cuts are extremely diverse. Those who like to wear something a little more fitted, can’t go wrong with slim fit trousers or a modern skinny cut. If you want more legroom, trousers that are kept in a simple and timeless straight cut will be just right. They are particularly suitable for a casual outfit or everyday wear. Of course, women also like to rock, and boots are indispensable for rockers, metalheads and punk rock girls. That is why many styles are specially designed with a boot cut, which leaves space for your treads. And if you want to relax comfortably and still stay cool, the extra-wide, cozy boyfriend cut is the cut of choice for you. So dive into the EMP shop now and find the trousers that suit you perfectly.
