Maine

Place

Ivy, water and grey skies.

Stone quadrangles, wooden boats, boathouses and coastal rooms with wool blankets folded at the end of the bed. Old clubs, older habits, and a wardrobe that has never needed to change much.

Cloth

Familiar and forgiving.

Grey flannel, worsted for the blazer, shetland and lambswool for knitwear, oxford cotton and needlecord for everything in between.

• Grey flannel
• Shetland
• Lambswool
• Oxford cotton
• Corduroy

Tailoring

Soft, but properly cut.

A natural shoulder, a lighter canvas and patch pockets. The blazer is the anchor of the collection; everything else is arranged around it.

• Navy blazers
• Sporting jackets
• Relaxed trousers
• Oxford shirts
• Knitwear

Details

Club, not costume.

Varsity references handled lightly: a stripe in a scarf, a colour in a lining, horn or brass buttons. Nothing that shouts an allegiance it hasn't earned.

Shoes

Weekend leathers.

Loafers, derbies and rubber-soled country shoes for wet grass and wooden decks.
