Pants Sale — April, 2011

Hi,

It's Jhane.

Did you know my menswear career started with a pair of men's pants? I received an order for 1,000 pairs after my friend was spotted at a Manhattan restaurant wearing a custom pair. I had to borrow money from my FIT biology professor to fill my first order!

While I've become known for my colorful, highly textured shirts, I still love designing pants that make men look and feel good. In fact, there are a number in my online store I think you'll love.

From now through the end of April, I'm offering $25 off each pair of pants in my online store. Limited sizes and quantities are available in some styles, so be sure to check these out now!

For the month of April, I'm donating a portion of online store sales to relief efforts in Japan.
I'm supporting the "Fashion & Friends for Japan Online Auction." Bid on my entry, and you could win an outfit that I'll custom design just for you! Get the details by clicking on the link at the top of any page of the online store.

As always, I love hearing from you, so don't hesitate to email me at jhane@jhanebarnes.com.

Enjoy!

My jean-styled pants in non-denim fabrics bridge the divide between casual and dressy. The jean style adds comfort to a fabric that would normally be a khaki or flat front pant. Here are a few of my favorites:

As one of my favorite customers says, "I love the way 'Contexture' fits me from waist to ankles. These pants mold nicely to the body, and are lightweight and soft to the touch. The textured stripe distinguishes these from a typical khaki. The more I wear 'Contexture,' the more I love them!" Try wearing "Contexture" with some of my prints, like "Crush" and "Aura," or a fancy woven, like "Bingo," a wiggly-striped yoroke.

"Capital" jeans look and feel like your favorite pair of cords. The weave creates raised, ribbed stripes, which are soft to the touch. Available in Black and Grey. Try these on with my push-pull shirt, "Linked In" for a fun, fresh look.

Classic linen drawstring pants in several variations are a perfect addition to your Spring wardrobe. Check out the following styles:

Light and drapey, "Island" drawstring, linen pants are available in Stone and White, and have a loose, casual fit. The woven texture creates a subtle stripe and adds sophistication. "Island" looks great with my colorful, short sleeve prints like "Bubbalicious," "Heaven on Earth," and "Ignite."

In 100% linen, "Indigo Blue Drawstring" pants are soft and easy to wear. These classic drawstring pants have a twill-textured stripe, and were washed with real indigo to achieve the deep color.

Finally, "Alberto" flat front pants have a casual, comfortable fit. These come in viscose and wool with a bit of elastic for an easy fit. Available in Black and Heather Grey. Try pairing "Alberto" with "Crystalline" or "Landslide."

I recently travelled to Tandus Flooring to help launch my latest carpet design. While I was there, I spent a day working with my Tandus colleagues to improve the environment at the Bethesda Home for Boys in Savannah, Georgia. We painted artwork on the walls, installed new floor covering, and revamped classrooms. I had never actually laid carpet before, and learned a lot about the process. It was fun!
