The remastering of a pair of straight-leg trousers from Matt’s graduate collection, Wake.


‘On a Friday night, enjoying a midwinter potluck on Upoko Road, I was wearing a pair of trousers from my graduate collection. Inspired by a fleeting encounter on the streets of Osaka, these pants featured a super-wide leg, and a length that all but enveloped my shoes.


Animatedly Sam began a bidding war, in which he was the only participant, over these trousers. I promised him that rather than sell him these pants, I’d rework them and make them anew.’    


He still hasn’t taken them off.
