When you look at a vintage photo or painting of a street scene in Paris, it looks like everyone's wearing a suit. Banker, artist, produce dealer, baker, all in suits. What you cannot tease out from gazing back in time is the cloth each suit is cut from. The suits of the working class were made from hardy, tough textiles like this one, designed to look at least passible in the city while surviving the abuse of real labor. 

The fabric is a new-old-stock striped cotton HBT in a desaturated gray-brown. Named "Le Marseillais" by the folks over at Mister Freedom, in honor of the French national anthem (of the same name). This 1940s-era stripe fabric pairs perfectly with the unstructured form of the jacket, and the high lapeled 4-button stance.

The trousers have everything we love. The fit is a medium rise, with a slightly tapered leg allowing for your choice of footwear. The back cinch is outfitted with a NOS slide buckle, and sits above welt pockets. They're lined with the same NOS cotton/linen chambray as the matching jacket. 

Fits true to size. Dry clean recommended, or delicately hand wash with a mild detergent in cold water and then hang dry.
