When we started out in 2012, we chose to specialise in men’s shirts: formal at first, essential for work, then casual, for every occasion.
Over time, we have discovered many workshops around the world, and we admit that we had long been tempted to discover new craftsmanship and explore other stylistic territories, not to mention your many messages encouraging us to broaden our clothing range.
With our new “Perspectives” collection, we decided to give our brand a new direction, to consider new horizons and give you access to the finest craftsmanship. Starting with our work jackets, designed especially for everyday life. Shall we introduce them?
For these jackets, we decided to work with one of our casual shirt suppliers in Portugal. Soft, relaxed materials, particularly cotton, are their speciality. We wanted to begin with the most obvious colours for a work jacket, while seeking subtler shades than the classics: a deeper blue, easier to wear than traditional workwear blue, and a nuanced green, more elegant than khaki.
We wanted a single-breasted jacket that allows great freedom of movement, and is understated enough to showcase the drape of the fabric, which falls perfectly once the jacket is on.
When it came to the cut, we kept things simple, and that is sometimes the hardest thing to do and find! So we went back to basics: we wanted a single-breasted jacket that allows great freedom of movement, and is understated enough to showcase the drape of the fabric, which falls perfectly once the jacket is on. We revisited the codes of the traditional work jacket, adding a few twists, such as a softer fabric and contrasting brown buttons.
The little details
Robust stitching, buttons with beautiful brown highlights that make all the difference, but what you will particularly appreciate are the pockets: two hip pockets, large enough to hold all your belongings, and a chest pocket for your card holder. And a welcome surprise: the inner pocket, discreet yet perfect for keeping small precious items.
It’s simple: we’ve been putting it to the test for months, and we no longer want to be without it.
