Freeman Popover - Graphite
90% Linen 10% Wool
As part of The Anthology’s resortwear series, this is the long-sleeve popover based on the 1960s beach shirt with our modified twists. An expressive throw-on-and-go piece, this piece is uniquely proportioned to pivot between a standalone statement and a stylish layering piece. The design comes with an enlarged pocket and a specially designed collar with horn buttons where need be.
The essence of the design comes in the fit. The loose fit of this popover allows for unrestricted movement and comfort. The fabric gently skims the body, creating a flattering and relaxed look. With the loose-fitting flowingness, the design oozes an air of elegance, with effortless drape and graceful silhouette lending a touch of at-ease sophistication. Curved hem with raised side slits, the bottom forms a dynamic opening, taking the whole fluid form to another level.
Widely distinctive from usual shirting cloth, this design comes in a specially-sourced wool linen blend, accompanied by excellent drape and hang, faintly textured with an abundance of herringbone weaves.
Pair this with: Khaki, honey, cream, green and brown. Perfect for the beach paired with shorts or swimming trunks. Finish off the look with your Panama hat, French espadrilles and your favourite pair of sunnies.
Care tips: Cold wash (below 30°C) by hand or machine, hang dry only

The Goodman Jacket captures the essence of modern day’s pared-down tailoring. Like the Lazyman Jacket's casual elegance, the structureless Goodman Jacket offers an additional touch of structure and form by using heavier fabrics. It drapes, gives shape, and its notched lapels and patch pockets offer a nod to timeless tailoring. Unlined and cut longer with straight lines, this jacket melds the best of a traditional blazer and a chore coat. Forgoing a chest pocket, it features unique double-side waist pockets that highlight perfect symmetry, accented by a small lapel loop.
Crafted from a modified heavyweight linen from one of our regular Japanese looms, this jacket boasts a coarse basketweave that reflects both tactile and visual sensations. The robust texture adds structure and enhances the overall look, making the Goodman Jacket a trusty alternative to the essential sport jacket.
Pair this with: knitted sweaters, Canvas Pleated Wide Trousers in biscuit or white, Bigman Shirt in slate or off-white.
Also available in 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.)

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.
The fabric is an exceptional duck canvas crafted from a blend of cotton, ramie, and linen. The predominant cotton content provides structure, while the linen and silk-like ramie enhance the smooth handle and moisture-wicking properties, adding a hint of silkiness without the fragility of fine silks. This distinctive weave stands apart from traditional robust duck canvas, offering a unique texture with no compromise on comfort.
Pair this with: Bigman shirt in off white or slate, Sport Jacket in grey herringbone, oatmeal herringbone, Long Sleeve Pique Polo in heather grey, navy, or chocolate brown and Lazyman Jacket in fawn herringbone or heather grey.
