Manual For Life: Summer Holiday Style

There's something timelessly captivating about a getaway by the sea. Whether you're setting your sights on an exotic coastline or uncovering a charming seaside town nearby, one thing is clear: your wardrobe needs to strike that perfect balance between laid-back beach vibes and sophisticated style for a smooth transition from sunbathing to sunset cocktails.

We know how crucial it is to find pieces, as breezy and comfortable as they are stylish. Our thoughtfully curated collection combines easy elegance with the kind of effortless cool that takes you from lounging by the water to enjoying the evening's festivities without missing a beat.

The Coast Shirt is crafted from a linen-like blend of Flax and Cotton ensuring a breathable and lightweight design. Using the finest natural materials, this shirt exudes timeless charm and sophistication, making it the epitome of classic style. Flax is a natural plant fibre and has thermo-regulating properties to keep you cool in the summer, making it an ideal choice for the modern man who values innovation and meticulous design. Paired with our Essentials Vest and beach-friendly chino shorts it’s perfect for the evening sun and will be right at home in the beach bar. 

After relaxing on the beach all day, pull on the Solar Polo and Shorts and head for the nearest gelateria. Made from a luxurious blend of 80% cotton, the Solar Shorts feature a 250gsm Terry Towelling fabric that ensures softness against your skin while providing durability. The stripe tape pocket trim edging adds a stylish touch, elevating these shorts from a basic to a stand-out summer staple. This summer duo makes a great pair for an evening stroll.

This is the perfect blend of relaxed summer vibes and rugged style, ideal for a day that seamlessly shifts from beachside lounging to an evening out. The Tan Sunday Shirt offers a laid-back yet refined look, versatile enough to wear over the Essentials Vest for a light cover during cooler breezes or on its own for a smart, casual appearance. The Essentials Vest in white is a breathable, simple layer that’s essential for any summer wardrobe, perfect for soaking up the sun or serving as a base layer when the day transitions into night. The Gravel Shorts, with their relaxed fit and utility pockets, strike the perfect balance between practicality and style. Whether you're exploring coastal towns or enjoying a bonfire by the shore, this ensemble keeps you looking effortlessly stylish from dawn to dusk.

The outfit is a striking combination of bold style and sustainability, perfect for summer days that blend fun and function. The Westside Shirt, with its sharp black colour and clean lines, brings a touch of sophistication to a casual look, making it ideal for both beach outings and evening events. Paired with the Crown Swim Shorts, which feature a dynamic print and are crafted from SEAQUAL® Yarn made from recycled plastic, this ensemble not only looks great but also supports environmental sustainability. The tan low-top sneakers add a laid-back vibe and are comfortable enough for a day of exploring seaside towns or heading to a beach party. This outfit is perfect for a summer day that begins with a swim and ends with a casual dinner or drinks by the shore.
