THE DESIGN |
The inspiration derives from traditional men's work wear and vintage uniforms. We like a visible connection between the handcraft of tailoring and classic function. The clean silhouette is well fitted with innovated cut lines carefully placed, not to disturb the function, but to enlarge the product.

THE DETAILS |
Hope focuses on details because they strengthen the product without interrupting the wearability. Details like asymmetric shaped pocket flaps, hidden closures, contrast fabric patches and stitching in various thickness, length and colour, add value and function to the design. |
|
A consistent, well made, fashion concept |

Hope is a lifestyle concept that exists in the field of fashion with a special liking for original and classic design. Our concept is consistent and recognisable. We like solid and true engagement for all parts included in the making process. We believe that our global customer share similar demand for a well-made concept as we do. |

THE MATERIALS |
Hope finds great pleasure in supplying materials chosen for their fine structure and subtle patterns. When creating a collection the production team search for fabrics with interesting surfaces, used finishing and innovating treatments. Hope selects materials with a high demand for quality performance. We like fabrics that ages with beauty such as waxed cotton and indigo denim. |

|
THE WAX WEAR |
In the beginning Hope wanted to find one classic material that aged nicely to be used all year around in outerwear as well as for accessories. The design team was interested in the raw, and quite stiff "unbroken" feeling of the waxed cotton. This fabric had been used for centuries in functional garments. Hope stared to test updated fashion styles in this traditional fabric and quickly found that customers appreciated the result. Hope uses both natural waxed cotton as well as a cotton material infused with a synthetic paraffin formula. Both versions give strong, abrasion resistant, and sure proof against weather. |
