Despite its
military origins, K-1s are far from the regimentals of yesteryear. Rather,
a postmodern adaptation: a fusion of khaki heritage and contemporary design.
A unisex khaki with no external branding, these pants are a departure
from the brand's past style. However, functionality, comfort and style
have not been neglected. "The authentic look of Dockers®
K-1 Khakis was achieved by retaining aspects of the original.
The button fly was cast from a 1940s US military mold, as were the melamine
buttons and it uses a US military style hook and eye closure. It's unique
flat front design and wider fly facing makes for an improved fit and a
one inch hem enhances the classic look," said Brandon Wong, DockersÒ Brand
Leader in Malaysia.
Its durability
and functionality are unquestionable. As we know, army uniform cloth was
made to withstand the most rugged of terrain and endure the toughest of
strains. If it can survive a war, it's sure to sustain the day-to-day
wear and tear of contemporary life. Surprisingly enough, they are as soft
to touch as they are durable and the "washed finish" of Dockers® K-1 Khakis
gives them that broken-in feel. Dockers® K-1 Khakis are priced between
RM199 and RM399.
