Red in this collection is not accent or contrast. It is position. The wide leg trousers in red make an argument about colour in the same way that the graphic trousers make an argument about pattern: directly, without hedging, the whole silhouette in service of a single decision.

The cut mirrors the wide leg graphic trousers exactly — the same wide, uncompromising fall, the same weight of pure wool. Where the graphic trousers carry the plaid stripe logic of the collection in their surface, these carry it in their colour. Both are drawn from the same source: the saturated reds in those folk-art game boards, the deep warm tones of the woven orange study, the boldness of a woman in an African studio portrait choosing a cloth that announces itself.

Worn with pieces from across Archive I or alone. The leg falls with authority. Built to last and to be kept.

Produced in an edition of 96 pieces.
