Fabric Partners

We select fabrics based on their ability to combine visual aesthetics with technical characteristics and exceptional quality.

Tier 2

Fabric Suppliers

We design and manufacture our products to ensure they fit and perform exceptionally. We work with material suppliers across the globe to utilize the knowledge and skills built up in regions over many years. We have direct and frequent contact with many of these Tier 2 partners, some of which have been working with us since the inception of the company. Our fabric suppliers are in constant dialogue with our manufacturing partners, ensuring complete alignment with the design and manufacture of an item.

We are working hard to produce a complete record of our supply chains. To this end, we are actively identifying and documenting every Tier 2 partner, ensuring clarity and improving relations. In the future, we aim to fully trace our products back to Tier 3 level to liaise and align with raw material suppliers.
