Om Zen Explorer Herrkollektion

Zen Explorer är en herrkollektion tillverkad av antika textilier och naturligt färgade tyger. Historiskt tyg samlas in och sorteras efter skala, tjocklek och säsong, och kombineras sedan med nytt material färgat enligt den traditionella indigometoden. Indigon framställs genom fermentering, utan industriella kemikalier. En stor del av arbetet utförs för hand, vilket gör att traditionella hantverk och mönster bevaras. Kollektionen förenar gammalt tyg med samtida upcycling och erbjuder hållbara och unika vardagskläder.
