...on the current trends in menswear:

"We're currently assailed by simple creations and traditional designs harking back to a no-bullshit era of staples done well. A focus on fabrics, cuts and build quality, plus a mix of dandyish looks and everyman classicism has permeated a territory once dominated by big logos and ironic references delivered LOUDLY, and we're not complaining. It's the rise of common sense clothing. The sort of gear that won't have you recoiling when your kids trawl your photo archive in search of mockery targets. Consider it sartorial futureproofing."
