SPOKEsmen,

This overwritten headline tells us three things:

1. Raw seasonal optimism has gone to our copywriter's head
2. Our copywriter has just booked a two-week Airbnb in Puglia
3. Italian Denim is back in stock

That's right. Spring is coming. And the only acceptable response is to bolster your lighter denim collection.

Woven in Milan by the legendary Candiani mill, and sustainably laser-washed - this is the summit of broken-in denim.

The 1 Year and 7 Year finishes are fresh in. Pick Stonewash for the spring-est choice. Either way, bless your Primavera with a primo-cut.

Tell Mi Amore

And have a cracking Sunday,

- Team SPOKE
