Linen softens with every wash. We cut the Field Overshirt for year five, not week one — with flat-felled seams that don’t fray.

Made to last.
Made to return.
We make everyday clothes from sixteen lower-impact materials — each one traced from fibre to finished seam, and designed to come back: to us for a second life, or to the soil.

Our materials
Five families. Sixteen materials. Nothing else.
We only use materials with a lower-impact case we can show you — and we’re upfront about each one’s trade-offs.
Why we’re building this
Most clothes aren’t made to come back. Ours are.
The biggest waste in fashion isn’t only how clothes are made — it’s how soon they’re thrown away. Indonesia alone produces an estimated 2.3 million tonnes of textile waste a year.3 These are the numbers we started from; from our first production run, we’ll publish our own against them.
- Kept in use longer
- 20–30%
- less carbon, water and waste when clothes stay in use nine months longer — WRAP’s estimate for the UK.2
- 1. Ellen MacArthur Foundation, A New Textiles Economy: Redesigning fashion’s future (2017).
- 2. WRAP (UK), Valuing our clothes: the true cost of how we design, use and dispose of clothing in the UK (2012).
- 3. Bappenas, quoted by GGGI, New partnership on textile circularity in Indonesia opens new doors for green growth (2024).

Buy less, buy better
We’d rather you owned fewer things, for longer.
So every piece is made to be worn hard, mended easily and kept — and we back that up in writing.
Free repairs, for life
Seams, buttons, zips, darning. Send it to us with a free label or drop it at the studio, and it comes back ready for another few years.
A 3-year durability guarantee
If a piece wears through with normal use, we’ll repair it — or replace it if it can’t be mended.
Cost per wear, up front
For every piece we publish an estimate of what it costs each time you wear it, so you can compare like with like.
Designed for the long run
Worn in, mended, passed on
We haven’t sold a piece yet, so there are no customer stories to tell — only what each piece is built to survive. Real ones, from the people wearing them, replace these after launch.
When an elbow wears through, we darn it — free, for life, with yarn kept back from the same run so the repair matches.
