Our Definition Of Evening Brown

 

Conflicting ideas are where things collide, leading to something truthful and meaningful. This sort of exchange seems to be the usual practice within our creative approach. Our evening brown tweed jacket stands as a living oxymoron, embodying an aspirational nod to country life with a design suited for the urban dream. Despite societal cues suggesting ‘no brown in town’, we think that is a fallacy that should not be adopted. Instead, being selective with the shades of brown is where it makes the distinction. Much like cummerbunds and sports shoes, which serve distinct functions and settings, our ideal urban brown provides an elegant alternative to traditional country hues.

Inspired by one of our bespoke favourites, this single-toned deep brown tweed jacket reflects our enduring affection for tweed, reimagined with a contemporary urban sensibility. Eschewing the russety browns that evoke brick houses, country barns, and wooded landscapes, this piece embraces an earthy tone with a cooler hue. The defined twill construction, crafted from British wool, is enhanced by a slightly hairy finish with subtle hints of grey, adding layers of visual interest.

 
 

The jacket’s design draws parallels between black and brown, creating the impression of a dark, sophisticated urban tweed. This thoughtfully curated piece stands as a testament to our commitment to blending tradition with modernity, offering a refined yet original expression of style.

The Anthology x Permanent Style Polo Coat - Teddy Brown
US$2,150.00

100% Wool

A luxury Polo Coat designed in close collaboration with Simon Crompton of Permanent Style, arguably the leading authority of classic & luxury menswear. This fabric is woven from heavily textured British wool, providing both warmth and a soft, fluffy texture that imparts a hairy, fuzzy sensation. Ideal for the winter season, it is perfectly suited for more casual ensembles. Full article about the collaboration here, also a full feature breakdown here.

The fabric complements our signature soft structure. The button stance is designed in a specific proportion which draws attention to the masculine lapels and chest without the use of padded shoulders or heavy canvassing, which goes in line with our house aesthetic and takes away the old-school stuffiness and formality. The design also allows lapels to be folded up under the chin at ease, which is thoughtful and functional.

* Fully canvassed and lined

* 6-roll-2 button stance

* Peak lapels with signature handmade buttonholes, fully hand-padded

Flannel Pleated Wide Trousers - Taupe
US$450.00

100% Wool

For the first time, we’ve let the cut of our trousers be the pièce de résistance, emphasizing form and flow.

These 'leisure trousers' feature a free-flowing silhouette that transitions effortlessly from a straight wide leg to a bootcut, exuding presence and drama. They showcase a soft, unstructured 'Hollywood' waist, offering a moderate high-rise fit that perfectly complements their wide-legged design. Crafted without waistbands and double forward pleats, these trousers sit higher on the waist without restricting comfort, providing a liberating fit.

This flannel is exquisitely woven, featuring a delectable mélange of grey interspersed with warm hints of fawn and soft brown. It combines softness with structural integrity, offering a generous flow and drape that ensures every movement is expressive. The mildly twisted construction underneath helps maintain the shape of the trousers, providing both elegance and durability.

Pair this with: Knitted Sweater in dark camel or cocoa, Sport Jacket in caviar, navy, or Goodman Jacket in camelhair and Wool/Cashmere scarf.

Penzance Moccasin by Crockett & Jones for The Anthology - Brown Milled Calf
US$695.00

Born from a boat shoe, a silhouette we are all familiar with, yet also equipped with a mountaineering look and sensibility, this is a hybrid design that is built for everyday use with casual and sartorial wear. Distinguishably more elegant and well-crafted than the mass-produced boat shoe, we retain the soul of traditional English shoemaking excellence through the expertise of Crockett & Jones, resulting in this luxurious everyday moccasin. This pair is equipped with waxed shoelaces and metal eyelets.

On a 391 last, it features a short vamp, purposely designed for casual shoes only. Crafted in luxurious milled calf, a soft calf skin that is comparable to sheepskin, with a buttery soft dark brown surface dressed with natural fine grains with no after-finish. To complement the softness of the design, the overall shoe is softly-lined, giving a more flexible toe box for better comfort. This design comes with a lasted chunky wedge sole, Goodyear welted. Box and individual shoe bags included.

Summary:

• UK sizing

• E fitting

• 391 last

• Milled calf upper

• Rubber wedge sole
