The outfit

Navy ribbed knit polo, $106. Smarter than a T-shirt, softer than a shirt. The ribbed texture and open collar keep it relaxed.

Black 100% linen pleated drawstring trousers, $163. Breathable and naturally a little rumpled, with a drawstring waist for all-day comfort.

Josh, brown suede leather trainers, $165. Dressier than a canvas trainer, still easy to wear all day.
