Meet our
Production Partners
Our commitment to responsible production begins in our Chicago studio and extends across carefully cultivated partnerships in the US, Mexico and China.
Each collection's journey is supported by trusted relationships with handpicked production houses. From skilled denim specialists in Mexico to versatile teams in China, we partner with facilities that share our values of quality craftsmanship and ethical practices.
These relationships are maintained through regular visits and ongoing communication, allowing us to work closely with the skilled hands that bring our designs to life. This direct connection ensures our exacting standards are met with every piece while supporting communities who take pride in their work.
Our Production Standards
While working with our global production partners, we adhere to fundamental principles that guide our manufacturing relationships:
- Fair wages and transparent compensation practices
- A safe working environments for all involved in creating our pieces
- Reasonable working hours and appropriate rest periods
- Environmental consciousness in material selection and production methods
We continue to evaluate and improve our practices, recognizing that responsible production is an ongoing commitment rather than a destination.
To further our pursuit of sustainability, we partner with collaborators that care about the environment as much as we do. Our denim is washed with 90% harvested rainwater, in a facility that is at the forefront of discovering new methods to lessen the carbon footprint of the production process.

Our material selection begins with a commitment to quality and longevity. We source fabrics not only for their aesthetic appeal but for their performance over time, seeking materials that will become more beautiful with wear.
Each textile is carefully assessed for weight, texture, and dye characteristics before being selected for our collections.
Across all our collections, we prioritize materials that balance luxury with everyday wearability. This thoughtful selection process ensures each garment maintains its integrity through years of use—becoming not just a purchase, but an investment.
Our Textile Standards
In selecting materials for our collections, we prioritize textiles that meet specific criteria:
- Adherence to OEKO-TEX® certification, ensuring fabrics are tested for harmful substances
- Support for heritage manufacturers with generations of expertise in textile creation
- Materials with remarkable technical qualities that improve with wear and age
- Commitment to materials with reduced environmental impact when possible
By honoring these standards, we contribute to preserving craftsmanship that might otherwise be lost to industrialization while ensuring our pieces carry forward the story of textile excellence.
