Easy breezy
8:00, June 22nd, 32°C.
The thermometer is really sizzling and you’re gasping for a bit of lightness and freedom. Yet, your wardrobe is having none of it, seemingly plotting to make you sweat buckets. You're itching to chuck on some shorts, escape to Alaska to live in an igloo or survive on Calypsos. But nope, you're stuck here. And it’s only 8 am.
Available from Tuesday, 5th March at 10 am (CET)
Like every Asphalte preorder from now on, The Summer Trousers are available for just 6 days. If you think you might miss it, sign up here to get notified when it kicks off. We'll even hook you up with early access, an hour before the official release so you’ll be first in line for delivery.
Summer in Linen
If linen isn’t a summer material then we don’t know what is. Lightweight, soaks up the sweat, and keeps you cool when the mercury climbs. And to stop it from creasing the minute you kneel down, we've woven it tightly to keep it in line. This density (280g/m2) sorts out two things: it’s not see-throughand it reduces creasing.
Summer in Cotton
Linen not your thing? Not to worry. Our Summer Trousers in a breezy cotton fabric have got you covered. At 240g/m2, it's like wearing air. Light in weight but not in style.
The fit's spot on
It's all about striking that perfect balance. On one hand, you want a fit that's breezy enough to let the air in and keep your pins cool. On the other, you're after something that doesn't look like you’re wearing a parachute. We've nailed a fit that's just right for the fabric and the season, and you'll be singing its praises come April.
Elasticated waist
Nothing beats the comfort of an elasticated waist in the summer. It's like your trousers understand you all of a sudden.
Maximum ventilation
Wearing these trousers, you'll feel like you're wearing very little indeed. Without the embarrassment. A pair of elegant pipes that'll be the backbone of your summer wardrobe this year, and many to come.
Totally traceable
The linen's grown in France and Ireland, spun in Tunisia, and then woven and dyed in Italy. It’s European Flax certified no less. The cotton's from Tanzania, spun, woven, and dyed in France at Telatex, all OekoTex certified. How's that for traceability?
Tuesday 10 am, get ready for summer!
The linen version will be available for preorder at 109 €, and the cotton version at 89 €.
You'll have 6 days to place your order from Tuesday 10 am.
If it doesn't work out fear not, returns and exchanges are easy and the cost of the return is on us.
On that note, we'll leave you to it. All you have to do now is decide which colour or colours you fancy. Mind you, last year we sold out of certain colours pretty quickly, so we'd urge you to be quick on your feet if you don't want to miss out on the colours of your summer.
And if there’s a chance you might forget about it all come Tuesday, drop your email address below and we'll be sure to send you a note on the big day.
