Anything else
The Blacktop Gear Leather Carpenter Trousers are men's black cowhide work trousers in the traditional craftsman style, with twin front zips, a side tool pocket and a slightly flared leg. Built for hard wear, they suit tradesmen and anyone who wants a rugged leather work trouser. Handmade to order in waist sizes 26 to 46 from $190, with free delivery within the USA.
Design & Build
These follow the classic craftsman trouser pattern in genuine cowhide. Two vertical zips run down the front from the waist, opening to deep pockets in the traditional guild-trouser style, and a side tool pocket sits on the thigh for a rule or a phone. The leg is cut with a slight flare at the hem so it sits over a work boot.
The shell is substantial black cowhide, tough enough for real work and the road alike, with belt loops and a zip fly. The leather holds its shape and breaks in over time, so these get more comfortable with wear.
It is a hard-wearing work trouser first, but the clean black leather reads sharp enough to wear beyond the workshop.

Who buys these
- Tradesmen and craftsmen. The twin front zips, tool pocket and flared leg follow the traditional guild-trouser pattern in tough leather.
- Riders who want a hard-wearing trouser. Substantial cowhide that takes real use on and off the bike.
- Anyone after a distinctive cut. The carpenter styling stands out from a standard five-pocket leather jean.
How they're worn
Black cowhide goes with anything — a plain tee or work shirt up top and boots below, with the flared leg sitting cleanly over the boot. They wear as a work trouser but read sharp enough for everyday. For a working fit order your normal waist size; size up if you layer underneath.

Frequently asked questions
Is the leather real?
Yes, genuine cowhide — a substantial, hard-wearing hide.
What are the front zips for?
They are the traditional craftsman-trouser detail: two vertical zips at the front open to deep pockets, in the classic guild-trouser style.
Is there a tool pocket?
Yes, a side pocket on the thigh for a rule, phone or small tools.
Which size should I order?
These are sized by waist. Measure your waist where the belt sits and match it to the chart. Between sizes, or if you layer underneath, size up — or send your measurements and we build to them at no extra charge.
How do I care for them?
Wipe clean with a soft cloth and condition the leather now and then. Keep them out of the wash and away from direct heat.
How long does it take?
Each pair is made to order in about 2–3 weeks, then shipped free within the USA.
Can I change the colour or details?
Yes. The leather colour, pockets, leg shape and hardware are all open on a custom build — tell us what you want and we quote it before you order.
Where is it made?
Blacktop Gear is a US brand. Every piece is designed in the USA and handmade in our own factory rather than outsourced to a third-party manufacturer — which is how we control the leather grade and the stitching on every order. Delivery within the USA is free.
Make it your own
Every part of these can be built to your spec — a different leather colour, a straight or flared leg, added tool pockets, or your own measurements if you fall between sizes. Standard sizing carries no design charge. Start your build on our custom leather gear page.
