New Arrivals: Design Notes For Winter 26

For me, the interesting space in menswear is where tailoring meets everyday style. You want the shape and consideration of a tailored garment, but also the ease of something you can put on without thinking too hard. Winter 26 continues that conversation. I have especially leaned into colour, pattern and silhouette this time around in order to blur the lines between tailored garments and more relaxed pieces.

Clothing with a military heritage offers a useful starting point - the intention is to carry that practicality forward, rather than reproduce an old uniform. A different textile, an easier proportion or a press-stud fastening can change how a familiar shape feels and where it belongs in a wardrobe.

All of our wool outerwear is produced in the UK, bringing together British wool, weaving and making, with fabrics from a Yorkshire mill featuring prominently. There is real character in these cloths and the craftsmanship is tangible.

Bold houndstooth gives the outerwear presence; corduroy, shadow plaids, ribbed wool and soft baby alpaca build depth beneath it. Colour creates its own contrasts: moss green against chestnut, or an ochre knit beneath brown pinstripe. Those combinations loosen up tailoring without losing its character.

Proportion is just as important. Short, bulky bombers sit above fluid, wide-legged trousers, while long coats add another sense of scale. A shirt layered over a T-shirt brings an easy manner to a suit; the trousers work equally well with a utilitarian jacket.

I think of these pieces as future vintage. Their value should grow through familiarity: the coat you know works, the knit you keep reaching for, the trousers that gradually become indispensable.
