Buying trousers is, admittedly, not the most exciting of activities when compared to, say, shopping for a new jacket or a statement knitted polo. Trousers aren't typically the stand-out piece of menswear in your look - they do the hard yards, creating an understated canvas against which everything else can zing. And yet, get them wrong and it won't matter if you've spent your entire monthly salary on a top - the look will invariably fall flat.
The truth is that trousers are the glue that binds your wardrobe together. With a statement summer top, you might be able to wear it one or two different ways, but you can build an entire seasonal wardrobe around two pairs of trousers. This season, we've produced a number of linen and cotton suits, the trousers of which we have designed to be worn as separates, too, using a variety of different leg silhouettes to ensure some are more casual than others. Our fishtail trousers have a tapered finish for example, and are perfectly suited to smart-casual wardrobes, whereas our judo trousers come cropped with a roomier thigh, riffing off a traditional workwear shape.
