One pleat, not two. It is a small distinction and it changes the front of the trouser entirely - a single deep fold on each side releases enough fabric for the hip without the fussiness that a double pleat brings with it.
The rest is straightforward tailoring done properly. A narrow belt threads through fine loops at a high waistband, the crease is pressed down the centre of each leg, and the leg itself runs wide and long to a full-length hem. Pockets are set into the side seams so the front stays completely flat.
They are the pair to own if you are only going to own one, and the reason is that single pleat.
