Design Philosophy

Only the best YKK zips

A product can be made of really great materials but if it doesn't last, it really isn't that sustainable!  To this end, we are always designing for longevity.  This means we put a lot of care and consideration into little details that might fail, like zippers and seams, and never settle for cheaper components.  Designing for longevity also informs our decisions regarding fabric weight, material selection, ability to wash and clean, as well as how likely a particular feature is to be reused or recycled later.

We believe another important part of design is the how an item looks over time.  That's why we never chase trends, instead creating timeless styles and designs that can be worn season and after season.
