{"product_id":"roman-smoke-vintage-viroel-italian-pleated-leather-trousers","title":"Roman Smoke | Vintage VIROEL Italian Pleated Leather Trousers","description":"\u003cp\u003eA striking pair of vintage VIROEL leather trousers, made in Italy in a sophisticated smoky gray with subtle taupe undertones. Cut high at the waist with a broad sculpted waistband, the design opens into soft front pleats before falling into a long, gently tapered leg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe leather has a beautifully fluid hand for a trouser of this scale, giving the piece movement rather than stiffness. Slash pockets at the hips add practicality, while the side-zip closure with two snaps keeps the front line clean and uninterrupted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is elegant, architectural, and quietly dramatic — a pair of leather trousers that feels less biker and more Roman atelier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy We Love It\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe waistband is what makes these exceptional. Its shaped, almost corseted construction creates a strong waistline, while the pleating below gives the leather unexpected softness and volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also love the unusual gray color. It has far more depth than black and pairs beautifully with cream, camel, chocolate, charcoal, metallics, or tonal gray.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigner: VIROEL\u003cbr\u003eMade in Italy\u003cbr\u003eColor: Smoky gray \/ taupe-gray\u003cbr\u003eLeather construction\u003cbr\u003eHigh-waisted silhouette\u003cbr\u003eFront pleats\u003cbr\u003eSide slash pockets\u003cbr\u003eSide zipper closure\u003cbr\u003eTwo snap closures at waistband\u003cbr\u003eTapered leg\u003cbr\u003eFully lined\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWaist: approximately 15\" flat \/ 30\" circumference\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHips: approximately 21.5\" flat \/ 43\" circumference\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInseam: approximately 29.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTotal Length: approximately 48\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e - Excellent\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCollector’s Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VIROEL label carries an address of \u003cstrong\u003eVia del Tritone in Rome\u003c\/strong\u003e, placing this piece in the historic commercial heart of the city. Having this garment tag printed with the address on  it anchors the trousers to the absolute historic heart of Rome. Via del Tritone is a grand, bustling central avenue that connects Piazza Barberini (home to Bernini's Triton Fountain) directly to the main shopping artery of Via del Corso.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Context:\u003c\/strong\u003e In the late 20th century, this street was a prestigious hub for independent Italian tailors, furriers, and leather boutiques. Owning a piece originally sold out of a boutique on this specific street adds a layer of narrative, confirming it wasn't mass-exported but rather purchased right in the fashion center of the Eternal City. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor a collector, the surviving address label is part of the appeal — giving the piece a sense of origin that many vintage leather garments simply do not retain.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mon Luxe Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44109246890043,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0656\/9056\/6715\/files\/IMG_2977-Photoroom.jpg?v=1788474348","url":"https:\/\/monluxevintage.com\/products\/roman-smoke-vintage-viroel-italian-pleated-leather-trousers","provider":"Mon Luxe Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
