In a small valley in the eastern part of the Sudeten Mountains lies the village of Jeseník. For the past 15 years, this town has been the home and heart of our brand and the foundation of everything we create. The story behind it is a vital part of our heritage and one of the things that make us truly different from our colleagues in the industry.

When we acquired our factory 15 years ago, we had a clear vision. On top of being the only Scandinavian tailoring brand with its own production, we also wanted to introduce the Italian production system, sartorial production, and challenge the top Italian brands on their own turf.

We believed in a future where demand for sustainable, long-lasting quality and transparency in production would shape the clothing industry. We knew that if we wanted to still be relevant in 10 or 20 years from now, we needed to stand apart from our competitors. We needed to go our own way and start creating the Cavaliere of the future.

It has been no small journey, that’s for sure. We had to rebuild the factory almost from the ground up. To achieve our vision, we partnered with one of the most respected Italian technicians in the field, Michele Veneziano. For eight years, we worked side by side, day and night, to create what is now one of the finest sartorial factories in Europe, producing 120 half-canvas jackets every day.

Having full control of the entire process, from fabric to finished garment, gives us possibilities that would otherwise be out of reach. The reassurance of knowing who sewed the shoulder seam, or who added the final buttons, and being able to pick up the phone to speak with the team in the steaming room, makes all the difference when we present our collections.

Owning our production is also reflected in the final price of our garments. Without a middleman or external factory, we can offer suits and jackets of true sartorial quality at a significantly lower price than other brands with a comparable product.
