International shipping
International shipping is available. However, please note that all
international customers outside of the European Union are responsible for any shipping costs, taxes,
and customs duties. I recommend checking with your local customs office
for estimated costs before placing your order. I am working to find
ways to reduce these fees and the complexity of this process for you in the future.
size chart
Hint: The coat does not change size significantly in coat length or sleeve length. If you need a shorter or longer coat, please select the option to lengthen or shorten the coat. If you don't feel represented by this size chart, please message me- since I am making all clothes by myself, I can adjust to your specific size.
Please refer to the following sizing chart to determine the appropriate size for your chore coat. Please compare to a chore coat that fits you laid flat. Please consider the fabric used is a hard wearing canvas and should fit you oversized.

By me, for you
Single-handedly manufactured in Berlin
I do everything myself. Everything is done in my own studio, from designs and drafts, pattern developing and prototyping to the actual manufacturing of every single piece of clothing. Every piece is cut, sewn and dyed by one maker (me) only based on your unique specifications and gets a brand tag with your name, your size and the date of production.
After Dye
Before DyeIN-HOUSE DYEING
Garment Dyed
I dye every single piece by hand after it is sewn together. This process is called garment dyeing and leads to a unique result. The dye washes have different effects on the fabric, depending on the colour.
Black comes out in a lush black with a velvet like shine that has a slightly formal appeal to it.
Blue develops out in slightly irregular shading, catching the light differently across the surface -like dusk reflected on petroleum. Each piece shows slight variation in tone and reflection, making every garment subtly unique.
Persistence vs Change
Deep black stays black. Petroleum blue evolves.
The black dyeing process involves a fixing agent, that supports the fight of the black garment against time and wear.
The Petroleum blue dyeing process is kept natural. The evolution of time and wear is accepted, welcomed and proudly worn. The garment presents its marks and blemishes like a journal, worn on your skin.
