Pike Brothers 1936 Chopper Pant Alcatraz White

The Pike Brothers 1936 Chopper Pant in Alcatraz White takes inspiration from traditional woodworking trousers worn during the mid-1930s. Designed for carpenters, joiners, and other manual trades, these trousers were originally cut generously to provide excellent freedom of movement and to allow them to be worn as an outer layer over everyday clothing.

The name “Chopper” reflects these woodworking origins, referring to the act of chopping down a tree rather than motorcycle chopper culture.

Vintage Workwear with Prison Stripe Styling

The distinctive Alcatraz White fabric features a traditional prison stripe pattern inspired by uniforms that emerged during the 19th century. The contrasting stripes were originally intended to make prisoners immediately recognisable, creating a design that has since become an unmistakable part of vintage clothing history.

Made from heavyweight 100% cotton at 375 g/m², the fabric provides a substantial, durable feel suited to the rugged character of traditional workwear.

The high waist and loose fit recreate the comfortable proportions of original 1930s work trousers, providing plenty of room for movement. Traditional suspender buttons reinforce the period-inspired design, while a dedicated ruler pocket on the right leg pays tribute to the trousers’ woodworking heritage.

Made in Turkey, the Pike Brothers 1936 Chopper Pant Alcatraz White combines heavyweight cotton, distinctive prison stripe styling, and authentic 1930s workwear details in a pair of trousers packed with heritage character.
