Scotch & Soda to launch men’s suits

Called Scotch Atelier, it is understood the sub-brand will be debuted at Florence trade show Pitti Uomo in January next year.

It will be distributed in the UK by Shoreditch-based agency Zone Two, which already works with Scotch & Soda and its sister brands Maison Scotch, Maison Scotch Amsterdams Blauw, Scotch & Soda Amsterdams Blauw and Scotch Shrunk.

Zone Two confirmed the launch of Scotch Atelier, but neither the agency nor Scotch & Soda would provide any further information on the collection or its pricing.

It follows a year of expansion for the Dutch brand, which opened its third London store, a flagship on Carnaby Street, in August.

At the time Drapers revealed the business was priming itself for further retail expansion in cities such as Brighton, Edinburgh, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and Cardiff.

Scotch & Soda has 120 stockists in the UK and Republic of Ireland including House of Fraser, Asos and denim indie Utter Nutter in Romford, Essex.
