Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Nantes Tailored Leg Cargo trousers represent a refined evolution of functional workwear. Specifically engineered for the female professional, these trousers move away from the boxy, oversized nature of traditional utility garments in favour of a streamlined, tailored silhouette. They offer a sophisticated balance between a formal office appearance and the practical necessity of multiple storage points, making them a versatile choice for staff who transition between client-facing roles and active operational tasks.
Key Features
- Tailored leg design: This provides a modern, professional fit that contours to the body more effectively than standard cargo trousers, ensuring you look sharp throughout the working day.
- Six-pocket configuration: With two cargo pockets, two hip patch pockets, and two front pockets, there is a dedicated space for every essential, from mobile devices to specialised tools.
- Integrated metal key loop: A secure and durable attachment point for keys or security fobs, preventing loss during active movements.
- Button fastening: A classic and reliable closure method that ensures a secure fit and stands up to the rigours of daily wear.
- Recycled fabric content: Incorporating 30% recycled polyester, these trousers support corporate sustainability goals without compromising on garment performance.
Design & Performance
The technical excellence of the Nantes trouser is found in its specialised tri-blend fabric. The composition of 63% polyester, 34% viscose, and 3% LYCRA® Elastane results in a medium-weight fabric that offers both structure and flexibility. The polyester provides the hard-wearing durability required for industrial environments, while the viscose adds a soft-touch finish and breathability for indoor comfort. The addition of LYCRA® is critical for a tailored garment, as it allows the fabric to stretch and recover, preventing the knees from bagging and ensuring the trousers maintain their shape after long periods of sitting or kneeling.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Given the high-quality fabric blend, the Nantes Cargo is an excellent candidate for customisation. For those seeking a truly professional finish, embroidery is the preferred choice for adding company logos or staff names to the pocket flaps. The fabric's weave is dense enough to support high-stitch-count embroidery without puckering. If your branding requires larger, more vibrant graphics, our precision printing processes provide a clean and durable alternative. All customisation is handled at our Telford facility by an expert team that has been perfecting these techniques since 1976.
Use Cases
These trousers are ideally suited for supervisors, property inspectors, and logistics professionals who need to maintain a high standard of dress while requiring the utility of cargo pockets. They are also a superior choice for retail and hospitality management where a professional image must be balanced with the practical need to carry keys, radios, or handheld terminals.

Practical Advice
The tailored leg offers a closer fit than a standard utility trouser. We recommend checking the 18cm half-hem width (based on a size 12R) against your current footwear to ensure the taper meets your preference. The inclusion of elastane means the garment will have a slight give, but for those between sizes, the tailored cut generally benefits from a more precise fit rather than sizing up.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of the polyester and viscose blend, these trousers should be machine washed according to the manufacturer's guidelines. Maintaining a consistent washing temperature helps preserve the fabric's dye and ensures the 3% LYCRA® content retains its elastic memory, which is vital for maintaining the tailored shape.
Avoid the use of harsh chemical bleaches, as these will break down the synthetic fibres and cause the fabric to thin prematurely. When drying, it is advisable to avoid high-heat settings which can damage both the fabric and any custom embroidery or print details. A gentle iron will restore the trousers to a crisp, professional finish, ready for the next shift.
