    What to wear with distressed Wabash Pants?

    Sometime the fade is more exaggerated when photographed flat like that but actually look a lot more normal when worn as a 3d object I tend to pair wabash with tan leather items, i think pairing it with another pieces of clothes in off white, black, olive or sage work
