Maison Hellard is a rather new cloth merchant from France specialized in pure linen fabrics. Their linen fibers come from the fields of Normandy and are woven in Italy to some of the finest linen cloths. A weight of 360g and a soft finish make these fabrics perfect for outstanding, but subtle and elegant summer braces. They look best combined with your usual summer wardrobe such as fresco or hopsack jackets and suits.
These braces are exclusively made for Shibumi in Somerset, UK.
Made in a small, traditional manufacture in the heart of the UK, our braces combine the best of British craftsmanship with classic, timeless designs. From traditional boxcloth felt in a variety of colors (the same material, by the way, that is also used in world-class pool tables) to seasonal variants in linen or tweed, made in cooperation with the best cloth houses of the world, including Hardy Minnis, Maison Hellard, Scott & Charters and Dugdale: the right braces for every occasion and style. Braces are by far the most comfortable method to keep one’s pants up. Since the braces are hanging from the shoulders, there is no uncomfortable pulling at the waist.
