Thomas Pink Underwear
Thomas Pink underwear has fast become one of our best selling brands. They are renowned in the City as being one of the best off-the-peg shirt makers around. So when we heard they were launching a men's underwear collection, we knew we would have to stock it. Thomas Pink underwear combines that classic "city guy" look, with a preppy modern twist, meaning the collection is as timeless as their shirts.
Last month they showcased their SS 17 collection. Inspired by an Annie Leibowitz shoot for Vogue from 2012, models wearing shirts and jackets with just their boxer shorts were seated on chairs, suspended, at varying heights, on a wall. Publicity stunts notwithstanding, the idea, was to “honor the City guy that Thomas Pink dress; really go back to the roots of the brand and showcase all their best shirts in every single fit.”
That meant the Bengal stripe, Imperial 200s and tapered athletic fits in simple whites, blues and pinks – paired with classic printed ties and suit jackets in steel grey linen to Prince of Wales check. There was also a raincoat in Loro Piana storm fabric “like a rather exclusive pac-a-mac,” he said – a nod to the importance of travel to the Thomas Pink customer.
The underwear came in a plethora of traditional Thomas Pink candy colours, with some bold pink shades thrown in for good measure. There were the old school Thomas Pink boxer shorts (something the brand do really well) and a more modern Thomas Pink boxer trunk shape, all with the signature Thomas Pink waistband.
