We design garments with durability and longevity in mind. By focusing on quality materials and timeless design, our approach goes beyond craftsmanship; it is about creating garments that evolve with you.
All garments in our Essentials collection contains either organic cotton, responsible wool, recycled polyester or Nylon or Lenzing™ branded fibers. Guaranteed that raw materials are fully traceable and certified. By offering durable Essentials, we believe that we minimize the consumption of the individual consumer.
When deciding on the raw material it is important always to use raw materials with the lowest possible environmental footprint. Therefore, we always strive to use the highest possible share of certified materials.
If pre-booked fabrics are already in stock it is a clear priority to use these up before requesting new materials.
When designing for circularity we always use raw material defined in below priority.
