These trousers are super easy to wear. Just pull them on over your legs and adjust the fold - over waistband to your preferred tightness. You can pair them with a simple top and some boots for a casual winter look, or dress them up with a nice blouse for a more formal occasion. When it comes to washing, it's best to use a gentle cycle in cold water to keep the fabric soft and prevent shrinking. Don't use bleach as it might damage the color and fabric. After washing, lay them flat to dry instead of putting them in the dryer, as the heat can change the shape of the cable - knit pattern. Store them folded in your closet to maintain their flared shape.
