Japanese Denim, 100% Cotton

Suitable for all smart to casual settings, there is nowhere this pair of trousers can’t take you.

Civilman Trousers are the relaxed versions of your tailored dress trousers. Like a chino, it is at the same time a step-up of the rugged jeans/classic denim. It embodies a modest and courteous image, mostly casual with a hint of dressiness for everyday use. We specifically sourced a Japanese loomed white denim to combine the aesthetics of 'smart casual'.

This design is based on the classic five-pocket denim, built-in with curved inset pockets on the sides of the front with a coin pocket (formerly referred to as a watch pocket). The traditionally big patch back pockets are purposely replaced with our signature anchor-shaped flaps. Cut for a mid to high-rise, straight-legged, perfect for tailoring and casualwear. Wear them pressed with the centre crease or without, up to your preference.

Pair this with: Workman Corduroy shirt in mushroom brown or moss green, Sport jacket in sandstone, Short Sleeve Polo in club navy or powder blue, and Lazyman Jacket in camelhair or navy bouclé.

Care tips: Cold wash (below 30°C) by hand or machine, hang dry only. Due to the nature of the cloth, a total of 2cm length shrinkage may apply from the first few machine washes.

Also available in taupe and other fabrics.

Long, but right before your knees, keeping your proportions right, also exemplifying pleated perfection.

If a pair of shorts go too long, covering one's knees, it makes one looks short. If the shorts are done too short and timid, it would look more like a pair of swim trunks, or worse, boxers. This artefact is all about striking the perfect balance, and we managed to find the unrivalled solution.

As part of The Anthology’s resortwear series, this is a ‘modern-vintage’ design made in a cotton/linen blend as a quintessential item, suitable to wear on the beach, the city, or even an excursion.

The form of the shorts is the true essence — it embodies chic and comfort. With practicality in mind, the design comes with slight volume around the thigh and the opening, ensuring the piece to be generous around the thigh part, allows ventilation.

The use of cloth is also the highlight. Cotton as the major constituent upholds a supple and moist look to the general garment, smoothens up linen’s characteristically dry and crisp handle. It also offers a more structural body, making creases look less wrinkly. The appeal is reminiscent of traditional preppy or English country chinos, just with an extra touch of linen for a sense of modernity and practicalism.

Linen also serves a functional purpose as it possesses a quick-dry effect and ventilating property due to its looser weaving structure, allowing wearers to enjoy their best under the heat. It is also traditionally perceived as a luxurious fabrication.

(We recommend the shorts hem to end right before your knees, otherwise, bring it to your alteration tailor for a simple alteration for the best result.)

Care tips: Cold wash (below 30°C) by hand or machine, hang dry only

Contrary to the first edition of the Wingman Blouson, this is a breezy linen alternative to a summer-tailored jacket. This is our take on a short-cutting jacket partially inspired by the historical flight jacket, with juxtapositions of spaciousness and form-fitting illusions through edgy pattern-cutting, forming a comprehensively sculpted form with hints of softness within. Full article about the design here.

Cut straight on the body with a naturally cinched elasticated waistband and sleeve opening, the sprucely gathered puckers give contrasted shaping yet maintain a clean, but not stoic look. The four-pocket arrangement added extra points of interest to the garment. Diagonally and reversely panelled forming a strong X-shaped profile, the sartorial-minded design is heightened by a touch of edginess, looking exceptionally spiffy even as a casual outdoor blouson. Slanted 'warmer' pockets around the upper waist are shielded by an additional layer, with zippers guarding both sides of the chest. All pockets are designed with better security, all thoughtfully angled and concealed to avoid one's personal belongings from falling out.

The blouson is finished with a silver two-way zipper. When zipped up, the body forms a subtle balloon effect like a classic bomber, giving volume to express a masculine look. By releasing the lower zipper, it complements our usual mid-high-rise trousers, achieving that sleek sartorial, tailored look, and creating a distinctive high-low aesthetic. An added feature to this summer version is the snap button fastening on the cuffs, allowing sleeves to be rolled up when the heat hits.

The fabric is in a white in full linen from Japan, enriched with herringbone textures woven into the bone of the fabric. Perfect to be used for holidays as a light step-up of a blouse.

Pair this with:

Knitted T-shirt in any colors, such as navy, espresso, or ecru. For Trousers, we highly recommend Drawstring Trousers, or dress trousers in brown, olive, and vanilla.

Also available in Lightweight Feathered Grey, Turquoise, Terra Cotta, Dark Teddy, and Jet Black
