Infusing 30 years of market-leading design and innovation from the khaki experts, Smart Series™ is an assortment of perfected fits with with comfort technologies and smart details to boot. New for Fall 2018, All Seasons Tech™ and Supreme Flex™ khakis boast enhanced functionality and durability, as well as the comfort, craftsmanship, and confidence consumers expect from Dockers®.

“We spent a long time with consumers to understand what is needed in a pair of khakis and to ensure we are delivering smart, relevant product. It’s about building on what’s already working for him and providing the newness he needs – not recreating the khaki wheel,” said Karen Riley-Grant, VP of Global Marketing at Dockers®.

All Seasons Tech™ khakis are made of a lightweight, engineered fabric that regulate temperature control for warm and cold conditions. These khakis adjust with you and the environment to keep you comfortable in changing conditions.

Supreme Flex™ khakis offer the ultimate in flexibility, featuring optimized four-way stretch technology that allows for a wider range of motion and an exceptional recovery rate.

Smart 360 Flex™ khakis continue to give consumers what they want overall: comfort. Since launching in Fall 2017, these innovative khakis have prepared consumers for whatever comes their way. Four-way stretch with excellent recovery and smart design details like a stretch interior waistband and covert security pockets, make these khakis not only innovative, but trustworthy.

To mark the release of this innovative line, Dockers® has launched the global #DockersChallengers campaign to celebrate real people who are making change in their communities and changing the ways we think and live. #DockersChallengers are confident and comfortable in their own skin. They are ‘Always On’ and ready for anything that may come their way.
