Wide-legged trousers with a straight fall, designed for free movement and air circulation. The cut traces back to naval use, built for long hours at sea. Today it works as relaxed daywear, carrying the same balance of comfort and order.


Atlantic crossings demanded garments that could withstand damp winds and sudden spray. Sailor trousers, with their open cut, suited work on deck and long voyages from Le Havre to Cayenne. They became part of the standard image of life at sea in the early twentieth century.
