I have a pair of the French Pocket Trousers but the pockets are extremely shallow. Is this the case on all their trousers? It's pretty annoying
Agreed, just got a pair and they are a bit too shallow. The jeans are better. The chinos have the best pockets I've experienced though.

Hi all!

Maybe this was covered before, but wasn't able to find the answer.

Do Rubato standard knitwear (rollneck, crewneck...) change in size or shape after washing?

Thank you!

Surprising how long the standard knit looks on Oliver considering he's quite a tall guy

If you crop a picture that way, yes. On a full body picture - not really :) I believe Oliver is 190 cm tall and wears size L, and the standard knit just touches the top and pockets of French trousers - when extended fully. I'm of a similar height and it's the same for me when you "extend" the sweater fully. Note that on most Rubato photography, they create a "roll" at the bottom, basically pushing the hem up a bit, so sweater fabric has a break, which does make them look shorter.

On the other note, possibly some future outwear for the next season here - what do you guys think? I think (may be wrong here) that storm coat also made an appearance at Pitti and then made it into the collection. Oliver does have the vintage shorter length green quilted jacket, so this may look like a custom take on it.

I believe that's a Lavenham Mickfield

How do you prefer trousers to be finished?

  • Plain hem

  • Cuffed (1.5 inches or less)

  • Cuffed (more than 1.5 inches)

  • No preference, as long as the proportions work
