Who makes these clothes?

Anh makes our hats from his window seat overlooking the neighborhood activity on his street. His family has been in this location for generations.

We really love our tailors.  We’ve become friends with some of the most amazing characters in Vietnam’s small fishing village called Hoi An.  After years of ordering our own threads, we’re trying to wean ourselves from ordering so many our own clothes, opting instead to get our fix by ordering yours!  We know just which of our tailors are better at certain things, and we know who has the choicest materials.  Rest assured, we’ll care as much about getting your new threads made as we do when we order our own.

We see our same tailors every trip, so they’ve grown to rely on us and we rely on them.  We don’t hire our tailors as employees and dictate their wages, instead, these are established business owners that name their own prices.  We promote fair business dealings and strive to promote a healthy global economy that enhances the lives of everyone involved.  We’re able to keep your costs down by eliminating all the middle-people along the way that you normally pay when you buy something from a store here in the US:  distributors, marketers, advertisers, and the rent on the shop space in which you view your prospective purchase.    In fact, after taking your order, our next stop is literally the door of our beloved tailors – the folks who will make your clothes!

A typical tailor shop in Hoi An, Vietnam. This is where we interface with the tailors to create your new threads!
