Cooke's Design Focus:
The Cooke Pant is the straight-leg pant you put on in the morning and don't think about again. A high-rise waist with a flat front and a half-elastic back gives you a tailored look with built-in give. The leg is fitted through the waist and hip before falling straight from the knee down, so it moves easily with you from your desk to dinner. This time, Cooke is back in our Twill Ponte, a fabric that prioritizes both comfort and structure.
Fit Guidance
Inseam: Approx. 29-31 inches. Designed at 29 inches; length varies by pant, see note below.
A note on length: We designed the Cooke Pant with a 29" inseam, but this production run came in with inconsistent lengths, ranging from about 29 - 31" across all sizes and colors. Everything else is exactly what we intended: the fabric, the fit, and the all-day comfort. We'd recommending planning for a hem, especially for the Black Twill Ponte color.
Design Details
- Inseam: Approx. 29-31 inches
- Waistband: Flat front with half-elastic in the back
- Leg: Straight leg, fitted through the waist and hip, relaxed from the knee down
- Pockets: 4 pockets — deep side pockets in front and 2 back pockets
- Seat: Deeper crotch for more room to sit and move, with a shaped back yoke
- Fabric: Pre-shrunk, so it keeps its length and width wash after wash
Fabric & Care
Made from a rayon, nylon, and spandex blend, our Twill Ponte is both stretchy and structured. It holds its shape through a full day, but it isn't restrictive or tight, so you can move, sit, and breathe comfortably in it. Look closely and you'll see a subtle diagonal twill texture, which gives the fabric a neat finish and feel without being scratchy against your skin. It's thicker than our Soft Ponte, with more body. That added structure creates a clean, tailored silhouette that stays polished from morning to night.
How it compares: Twill Ponte sits on the structured side of our fabric range. It has more body than our Soft Ponte and is a step lighter than our Double Knit, which is our thickest fabric and shares the same blend without the diagonal twill texture. If you want something softer with more drape, our lightweight rayon jersey is the most fluid fabric we offer.
Composition: 68% Rayon, 27% Nylon, 5% Spandex
Care Instructions:
Machine wash cold, gentle cycle with like colors.
Do not bleach.
Hang dry for best results.
High heat may cause additional shrinkage.
Style Tips & Designer Notes from Allison
Style Tip:
Cooke works with relaxed and fitted tops alike. Pair them with the Jana Top, a blazer, and heels for the office, or with the Hannah Top, a cardigan, and your favorite sneakers for a travel day or an easy fall weekend. For a more casual look, tuck and roll the cuff.
From Allison:
"Pants are where this brand started — I was making jeans over 20 years ago because, at 5'2", pants were always the hardest thing for me to find. They still are, so I put everything I want into every pair we make. With Cooke, that means a generous, comfortable waistband, a deeper crotch so you have room to sit and move all day, and four real pockets — deep ones in front and two properly placed in back. We usually make Cooke in our thicker Double Knit, so for this Twill Ponte version we tweaked the pattern to fit just right in a stretchier fabric. It's super stretchy and holds its shape, but it isn't restrictive, so you can still breathe in them. I hope they become your favorite pants for work, travel, and life in general."
