Story & heritage
BEAMS PLUS was launched in 1999 as BEAMS's menswear label for modern basic utility wear, rooted in American traditional, work, sports and military clothing from the mid-1940s to the mid-1960s.
BEAMS lists 2 Pleats Tapered Twill among its BEAMS 100 Famous Products and calls it a long-selling Japanese-made “Wide Chino” from BEAMS PLUS.
Materials & craft
The official product page describes two waist pleats, a classic watch pocket, slightly shorter length, turn-up hem and a relaxed top block tapering cleanly at the hem. The fabric is listed as a soft cotton twill with 98% cotton and 2% polyurethane in the body, made in Japan.
How to choose & style
Choose khaki or navy for the full Ivy effect with an oxford shirt and loafers; black or olive makes the same silhouette feel more workwear and contemporary.
