SPOKEsmen,

Yes, we know. Lyocell sounds like a viral gut health supplement.

But it's actually a lush, modern, wildly comfortable fabric made from... trees.

This is where natural materials meet cutting-edge tech to deliver something special. Soft, strong, elastic - and more sustainable than cotton.

Ours is French - woven in Saint Amarin, just before the rolling hills of Alsace give way to steely German industry.

The texture is peachy, smooth, and silky on the skin. Yet there's a satisfying structure and weight, giving it a clean, crisp drape.

It's blended with cotton, a hint of stretch - and cut in our off-duty five-pocket design.

This season's drop is a doozy: brooding Heavy Metal, nutty Ammonite, and your favourite Dark Navy.

Give Me Fives

And have a cracking Wednesday,

Your basics don't have to be basic. So we've taken the pieces you wear most and, elevated them with precision hardware, lush fabrics, and our improbable range of sizes.

In this week's Margin Notes: why we love literary anniversaries, filmmakers are having to explain the plot three times, and watch Veronika the brown cow pick up a rake to scratch herself - a scientific first.
