For spring/summer 08 Dockers ® San Francisco has taken inspiration from travel and exploration to create a fresh, clean and modern take on its iconic khaki range.
Originally invented by Brit Sir Harry Lumsden in 1846, khakis crossed over from the military locker into civilian wardrobes in the 1950s quickly becoming a staple item for every man’s casual wardrobe.
This season’s collection sees Dockers ® going back to its roots to introduce the contemporary khaki that no man should be without.
With a new concept offering men Weekday and Weekend outfits that they can mix and match according to their lifestyle, the spring/summer collection offers stylish outfits for any occasion.
The range has a sophisticated look that is driven by laid back, laundered but clean silhouettes that highlight this season’s preppy trend.
Why not team slim fit pants with a sporty polo in faded brights and then to take the look from day to night, add the cotton herringbone striped shirt and cotton linen blazer.
The simple but stylish cotton fine gauge knitwear collection includes engineered stripes, cardigans, tonal jacquard pattern polos, and light weight classic stretch jersey tees. A new cotton laundered shirt range in a mix of fits, patterns and colours also offers an alternative look, with crispy cotton poplin working as another seasonally appropriate fabric.
Alongside the D-fit pants that Dockers ® is famous for, is the inclusion of new fabrics, finishes and shapes which offer men the chance to experiment this season. Significant pieces in the range include the San Francisco pant with a slim and slightly tapered bottom, the new narrow low rise twill Beyond Desert pant and the Baja California pant which features a slim fit bow leg with heavy stone wash and black sand/resin finish.
A good pair of shorts are a must for the warmer months and Dockers® offers various options with linen, poplin, cargo, patterned or loose designs. Cargo pants are also key but evolve for the summer with the addition of a new slim fit and a cotton blend cargo.
To stay cool and look smart this summer choose a casual military look by teaming linen pants in British khaki with a plain shirt. The Dockers ® collection has a wide range of linen including the popular D4 comfort fit pants and shorts as well as a range of plain and striped long and short sleeve shirts.
Available in leading retailers, the Dockers ® collection allows men to mix and match their wardrobe so they have a fashion option for every occasion this season.
