It started with the wrappers.
Seven of them, in fact. Seven natural cigar tones, from the lightest leaf to the darkest maduro, laid out not as tobacco but as a color story. I kept looking at them and thinking the same thing: this is already a menswear palette.
So I turned it into one.
The Cigar Flannel was designed from that progression of color, then pushed through my obsession with 1970s tailoring; the years when checks were bigger, browns were better, trousers sat higher, and men still dressed with a little danger in them.
That was the mood I wanted.
Cigars have always been deeply personal to me. Not in the theatrical sense, but in the ritual of them: the wrapper, the cedar, the oils in the leaf, the way the color shifts in different light, the few quiet minutes before lighting one and the considerably less quiet hours that sometimes follow. There is something wonderfully civilized and slightly disreputable about the whole thing.
That contradiction has always felt very ARNY.
The cloth had to carry the same weight, literally and otherwise. I wanted a proper English flannel weight, with real body and drape. Something that could hold a strong trouser line, give a jacket presence, and feel better after years of wear than it did the day it was made. No flimsy seasonal interpretation. No novelty.
The pattern is bold, but the colors keep it grounded. Tobacco. Cedar. Espresso. Burnt leaf. the ashes. The sort of browns that belong equally in an old London club, a downtown New York bar, or across the table from someone you probably should not be having one more drink with.
That is the Cigar Flannel.
Seven wrappers. A little 1970s bravado. A proper heavy flannel.
