I’ve spent years keeping an eye out for true railroad stripe anything, and somehow they always escaped me. These were my first pair, and a once these are Liz Claiborne they are not like traditional workwear, but instead they have an effortless elegance. I wore them through Austin and fell in love with them. They’re soft, comfortable, beautifully cut, and somehow feel perfectly at home wandering downtown in muggy heat or lingering over tacos with a friend.
