Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Rochelle Slim Leg Jean represents a refined approach to the classic five-pocket trouser, specifically engineered for the professional woman who requires a balance between a contemporary aesthetic and workplace functionality. This is not a standard denim garment; it is a sophisticated hybrid that brings the durability of a jean into a corporate or smart-casual environment.
Crafted with a focus on silhouette and movement, these trousers offer a slim leg profile that remains professional without being restrictive. The inclusion of subtle design elements, such as the gold contrast thread detail on the indigo colourway, demonstrates an attention to detail that elevates the garment above high-street alternatives.
Key Features
- Slim Leg Profile: Provides a modern, streamlined appearance that fits comfortably under tunics or pairs neatly with tucked-in shirts.
- Five-Pocket Styling: Offers the practical storage and familiarity of a traditional jean, ensuring tools or personal items are always within reach.
- Contrast Thread Detail: The indigo version features gold stitching, providing a premium, high-quality finish that distinguishes your staff from the competition.
- Casual Stud Button: Ensures a secure and robust fastening that can withstand the rigours of daily wear.
- Stretch-Integrated Fabric: The blend of materials ensures the trousers move with the wearer, reducing fatigue during long shifts.
Design & Performance
The Rochelle jean is constructed from a high-quality blend of 98% cotton and 2% elastane. This composition is chosen for its technical performance; the high cotton content ensures the fabric is breathable and soft against the skin, while the elastane provides the essential mechanical stretch required for active roles. The result is a medium-weight fabric that maintains its shape throughout the day, avoiding the 'bagging' often associated with lesser-quality trousers.
The durability of the weave ensures that these trousers can handle the repetitive motions of a busy workday, from bending to reaching, without compromising the integrity of the seams. The slim leg design is tapered precisely, with a 18cm half-hem width on a size 12 regular, providing a tailored look that remains practical for various footwear choices.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
To truly make these trousers part of a professional uniform, customisation is key. At MyWorkwear, we recommend embroidery for the Rochelle jean. A small, high-stitch-count logo or employee name placed on the pocket or hip area provides a permanent and prestigious finish that withstands regular laundering.
While embroidery offers that 'proper' professional appearance, our Telford-based team can also apply high-quality heat-seal prints for larger, bolder branding if your business identity requires it. Since 1976, we have honed our internal processes to ensure that your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the professional standard your business deserves.
Use Cases
These trousers are exceptionally versatile. They are an ideal choice for hospitality staff in modern bars or restaurants who need to look sharp while remaining mobile. They are equally suited for retail environments, customer-facing technical roles, or as part of a relaxed office uniform where a standard suit trouser might feel too formal.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, consider the slim-leg nature of the garment. The elastane provides some flexibility, but for those between sizes, the tailored fit may feel more secure. These trousers pair exceptionally well with a crisp button-down shirt for a smart-casual look or a high-quality polo shirt for a more relaxed, approachable appearance. Layering with a lightweight knit or a structured jacket can further elevate the professional aesthetic.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and visual appeal of your Rochelle jeans, it is vital to follow the care instructions provided. This garment is machine washable, but we recommend washing at a standard temperature to prevent premature fading of the indigo dye or damage to the elastane fibres.
Avoiding the use of harsh bleaching agents is essential; such chemicals will strip the colour and weaken the cotton fibres, leading to a shortened garment lifespan. When drying, a moderate approach is best to preserve the elasticity that gives these jeans their comfortable fit. Proper care ensures that your custom embroidery remains sharp and your trousers remain a staple of your work wardrobe for the long term.
