The Storms Houndstooth in dark grey houndstooth, from cloth to care

Storms Houndstooth · The Flannels

Nov 2, 2026·

The Storms Houndstooth is the kind of piece that disappears once you put it on, in the best sense. flannel, dark grey houndstooth, nothing to adjust.

How to wear it

Summer: linen shirt, loafers, no socks. Winter: merino rollneck, boots, heavy coat. The Storms Houndstooth handles both.

Fabric

flannel was the right call here: matte surface, calm drape, and enough body that it does not cling after a few hours of wear.

Fit

It sits at the natural waist and falls straight. No taper, no break at the ankle, which makes it easy to pair with almost any shoe.

Care

Store folded in a dry place. Hanging stretches the waistband over months, especially on flannel.

Worth knowing

Colours within the range are dyed to sit together, which makes combining two pieces from the same fabric straightforward.

The Storms Houndstooth is not a statement piece. It is the top you reach for without thinking, which is usually the highest compliment.
