INCOTEX

Incotex is “THE” trouser, thanks to its timeless style and comfort. Painstaking attention is paid to the finishing, materials and details.

Season after season, Incotex never stops innovating and focusing obsessivelyon interiors, on the fit and on experimenting with new fabrics and treatments.

Men’s and women’s trousers for every occasion, from refined tailoring to smart casual.

Every model uses exclusive, unique fabrics created by Incotex together with its partner companies: like Incochino (Incotex’s yarn-dyed chino), suitable for the coldest months, and Chinolino (an extremely soft cotton-linen mix) -ideal for the city heat.

It’s the details that make the real difference.

GLANSHIRT

Glanshire, only shirts of the highest quality to wear with nonchalance.

Elegant and creased, with a vaguely retro 60s feel, Glanshirt has never stopped reflecting that “Dolce Vita” atmosphere combining precision, modernity and innovation.

A range as broad as the shades, textiles and treatments it employs: washed fabrics that give each item the unique sense of a garment with an important story to tell.

Strictly informal but sophisticated in fit and taste.

RED

With R.E.D. – an acronym for Research and Distribution – the company pushes back the boundaries of research to find new fits, new treatments and new materials to generate unique garments with a vintage tailored feel: clothes for connoisseurs.

The R.E.D. collections emerged as a natural evolution in design from the Incotex, Glanshirt and Montedoro lines. And within the R.E.D. world, the group has created 2B3, a brand dedicated to knitwear and treated jersey.

A radical vision, experimental treatments and tailored fits revisited from a modern perspective are just a few of the ingredients behind the success of the collections, which pay tribute to classic Italian and British tailoring while updating those traditions.
