Really? Interesting, it might be my memory but I can't remember anyone I've worked with saying that

I think cotton to be honest. The issue with these is mostly the fine yarn, but the weave is quite sharp as well.

Well I'd argue the opposite will be the case. When there's less need for a formal suit since the decline of dress codes (especially in work places) the opportunity to wear a jacket is more of a personal choice. Something you do because you just…

Lovely article Simon! I think such pieces are a fantastic feature of this website and they remind me of the early days of PS. Also interesting to learn from the armoury interview that he was head cutter at liverano, that plus the price point make…

I have not always been a fan of half sleeves polo with jeans and even you have mentioned in one of your comments that you find that look lazy. Would a long sleeve polo also look better with workwear chinos rather then denim according to…

Just an FYI: Nick over at the Garmology podcast posted a lovely interview with Yuki Matsuda in February. Yuki talks about the origins of each of his brands. It’s worth a listen.

Hi Simon, hope you’re well. Congrats on the successful book launch, can’t wait to read it! You’ve mentioned several times that these wool trousers rarely come out due to how formal they look. Is that due to the weave, the fabric, or both? I’m commissioning…
