Arnaut Belcour

Notes / 01 · June 2026

On weight.

A trouser falls the way its cloth allows. Too light and it clings and breaks at the wrong places; too heavy and it stands away from the body and tires the wearer. The three cloths in the first release sit at roughly 400 grams to the metre, heavy enough to hold a crease and fall in a clean line, light enough to live in.

Each was chosen for how it behaves, not how it reads in a photograph. The gabardine takes a sharp crease and holds it. The flannel softens the line and warms the colour. The cavalry twill carries a diagonal that catches the light and keeps the silhouette through the leg.

All three are pure wool, cut and made in Europe, lined to the knee in Bemberg cupro. The cloths are chosen to be kept, not closed out, so a trouser can be made again. The first release is October 2026.
