What role do the string and cord lock at the hem of the pants play?
While reading the product description for the wide pants, I saw that a drawstring and tightening hardware were applied to the hem. I am wondering specifically how this feature is used during everyday wear or when walking.
They serve to change the silhouette by tightening the hem width of the pants, or to secure the hem so it does not flap around and drag while hiking.
The string refers to the tightening cord inside the garment's hem, and the cord lock refers to the component pressed to secure that cord at the desired length. GOYOWEAR's wide corduroy pants incorporate both of these details so that you can adjust the hem circumference yourself[1].
These pants are designed with a roomy fit suitable for both hiking and everyday life during the fall and winter seasons[2]. Normally, you can wear them with the hem loose for a wide, falling silhouette; during outdoor activities, you can tighten the cord to secure the hem so it does not get stepped on by shoes or drag on the ground. On days when the temperature is low or it is windy, narrowing the hem also helps reduce cold air entering inside the garment.
It has not yet been confirmed what material the string is made of or whether a separate loop is provided inside to organize the remaining cord after tightening.
