The fabric has a mottled appearance, possibly due to variations and knots in the yarn, giving it a rich texture. It's plump and thick, making it suitable for winter wear. There is no lining. All four pockets are real. This is from a while ago, so the back waist isn't elasticated, but is the same as the front. However, elastic is threaded inside the fabric, allowing it to stretch sideways for comfort and a good fit. The pants are tapered, so the inseam is short, and hemming probably isn't necessary. I've provided actual measurements. Please refer to the tag for the appropriate size. Pant Length (from the bottom of the belt): 86 cm Waist: 67 cm Inseam: 65 cm Pattern/Design: Solid
