After Drake’s · Autumn/Winter 2025
Drake's by A. Levine Black Cotton-Linen Games Trousers
Drake's made these trousers with A. Levine as the companion to its Games Blazer. Worn together, the two make a relaxed suit that sits somewhere between tailoring and workwear. The high rise and full leg take their cue from mid-century trousers. A single pleat and a gentle taper keep the line tidy, and side adjusters and belt loops leave a choice of how to wear them.

Black Linen Palermo Drawstring Pant
Drake's cotton-linen duck canvas is not available, so we chose a black Portuguese linen in a plain weave. It is the closest match in colour and fibre, and it has a dry, textured surface. We set a single pleat, a zip fly, belt loops, charcoal horn buttons and a flap back pocket closed with a button, all to match the original. Side adjusters were not offered, so the waist relies on belt loops alone, and the side seam pockets stand in for Drake's vertical pockets.
A pure linen woven in Portugal and listed as medium weight. Its plain weave shows the natural slub of the fibre and has a soft, broken-in hand. It is solid black, breathes well in warm weather and creases readily as it is worn.
