SKFK MARI GREEN trousers – wide-leg barrel trousers made of organic cotton
Oh, this is a great style. MARI by SKFK has that beautiful wide shape that you see everywhere right now, but without you disappearing into a huge amount of fabric. High-waisted, comfortably spacious around the legs, and narrowing slightly towards the ankles. A bit barrel, a bit carrot, and above all: incredibly fun.
And then there’s the color. Deep dark green. The kind of color that almost acts as a basic, but is much softer and more exciting than black. We think it looks absolutely amazing with burgundy – just as SKFK styles it themselves.
MARI is made of 98% GOTS-certified organic cotton and 2% elastane. This gives the trousers the sturdy look and feel of cotton pants, but with just enough stretch to move comfortably.

How do the SKFK MARI trousers fit?
MARI has a high waist and a very generous fit around the hips and legs. The style tapers slightly towards the bottom, which creates that characteristic rounded barrel shape that you can clearly see in the photos.
Important: don't just look at the generous hip width for these trousers. The waist is much more important for your size, as the trousers should fit nicely there.
What are the measurements of the SKFK MARI?
SKFK provides the following clothing sizes for these trousers. These are measurements of the garment itself:
| Size | Waist | Hip | Total length |
| 36 | 72 cm | 116 cm | 100 cm |
| 38 | 76 cm | 120 cm | 101 cm |
| 40 | 80 cm | 124 cm | 102 cm |
| 42 | 84 cm | 128 cm | 103 cm |
| 44 | 90 cm | 134 cm | 104 cm |
The model in the photo is 1.66 meters tall and wears a size 34. This gives you a good idea of where the trousers hit at the ankle.
Are MARI trousers barrel or carrot?
Actually, MARI is somewhere in between. SKFK describes them as a carrot ankle-length trouser, but due to the distinctly roomy legs and the way they taper towards the bottom, they absolutely have that modern barrel look.
Whether you call them barrel, carrot, or just a really fun pair of wide-leg trousers: the shape is what matters most. Narrower at the waist, plenty of room through the leg, and narrower towards the ankle.
How do you style these wide green trousers?
We would emphasize the waist and the unique shape of the trousers. Try a cropped cardigan, a fitted shirt, or tuck part of your top into the trousers.
In terms of color, dark green is surprisingly versatile:
- With burgundy or aubergine – gorgeous for autumn and winter
- With ecru or cream for a calmer combination
- With dark blue for a tonal, soft look
- With pink if you want a bit more color
- With a wool sweater and ankle boots as soon as it gets cold
And naturally, black works too. But honestly: with such a beautiful green shade, we would first have some fun playing with color.
Are the SKFK MARI suitable if you are not very tall?
Yes, and it is precisely the ankle length that makes this model interesting. Very wide-leg trousers can sometimes be overwhelming for a shorter frame, but MARI is intentionally cut shorter.
The model is 1.66 meters tall and you can see the trousers end nicely around the ankle. If you are taller, MARI will naturally fall a bit shorter – which is part of the design.
What does GOTS-certified organic cotton mean?
The majority of MARI consists of GOTS-certified organic cotton. GOTS stands for Global Organic Textile Standard and sets requirements for both the organic fibers used and various stages within processing and production.
For you as a wearer, it primarily means you are getting a beautiful, sturdy cotton quality. The 2% elastane ensures that the fabric has a bit more give than a completely stiff cotton trouser.
How do you wash the SKFK MARI?
Wash the trousers preferably inside out at a maximum of 30 degrees with similar colors. Use a mild detergent and do not overfill the drum.
Remove MARI from the machine immediately after washing, gently pull it into shape, and let it air dry. We would skip the tumble dryer for such a lovely pair of cotton trousers.
Dark colors stay looking good for longer if you don't wash them unnecessarily often. Airing them out is regularly your best friend here, too.
Don't buy if…
…you are actually looking for neat, straight-leg trousers that flow straight down.
MARI has shape. That wide, slightly rounded leg is exactly why these trousers are so fun. It is the type of style that makes your outfit work instantly with just a simple shirt on top.
