Founded in 1851, Aquascutum has grown to this day because of its excellent outerwear and tailoring, which both are synonymous with style and luxury elegance. Both of these features are present in the latest collection which stays true to the brands classic heritage roots, but also delivers a light, modern and casual style.

Designed with the sophisticated gent in mind, the collection consists of a mainly grey, blue and red colour palette.
