Navy Cotton-Linen Games Trouser
The verdict
Fit
Games cut, fuller through hip and thigh, higher rise. Cotton-linen softens and relaxes slightly with wear. Expect the trouser to become more body-fitted over time.
Quality
Cotton-linen in a games weight is Drake's established standard for casual wear. Durable and designed to age into comfort. Construction is clean and dependable.
Price check
Straightforward pricing for a blended games trouser. Value is in the weight, the blend, and Drake's make quality.
Best for
A casual dresser building a core wardrobe who wants navy games trousers that work across seasons without rotation.
Care
Dry clean or hand wash. The blend is low-maintenance and forgiving compared to pure linen.

What owners report about Drake's pants
Reviewers describe Drake's trousers as cleanly made in Italy, with neat machine sewing, good hardware and small reinforcement points — a step above high-street make, though only marginally different from comparable trousers at the price. Fit is the recurring topic: rises run high and the cuts differ substantially between styles, with the wider high-waisted models sitting so far up that some owners only wear them with knitwear over the top or find them hard to wear with a tucked-in shirt. Forum owners lean on the side adjusters to dial in the waist, and note the range of fabrics and colours rotates often, so a favourite cloth may not come back.
- Strengths
- Tidy, well-finished Italian construction and characterful fabrics that reviewers rate clearly above high-street make.
- Watch out for
- Style-to-style fit swings are large — the very high-rise wide cuts divide owners — and the fast-rotating range means specific fabrics and colours disappear.
- Sizing
- Rises are high across the range and the wider Games-style cuts fit very differently from the flat-front chinos, so check each style's own measurements and expect to use the side adjusters for waist leeway.
