The Capsule
Four pieces. Done properly.
No printed graphics, no oversized logos. Heavyweight cottons, embroidered wordmarks, garment-washed construction. Made in small batches by mills who've been doing this for fifty years. Built to live in your rotation for years, not seasons.
Why a capsule
Four pieces is enough.
Most brands release four collections a year. We release four pieces, and we keep them. The tee is the same tee it was eighteen months ago. The hoodie hasn't changed weight, hasn't changed cut. When the bomber sells through its run of 200, we close the order book and move on.
Small batches let us hold quality. They let us pay the Portuguese and Italian mills properly, in full, and on time. They let us inspect every piece by hand before it leaves the warehouse. And they let us tell you the truth about what you're buying — no markdown cycles, no warehouse clearance, no fake scarcity.
You don't need a closet full of branded clothing. You need four pieces that work harder than the twenty they replace.
Essential01 · Heavyweight Tee
The 12oz tee that doesn't sag after the third wash.
Combed and ring-spun cotton, garment-washed to lock the dimensions before it ever reaches you. Boxy modern fit through the chest, slightly cropped at the hem. Centre-chest tonal embroidery in matched onyx thread — visible in the right light, invisible from across the room. The kind of tee that becomes the only tee.

450gsm loopback cotton with a tapered leg that breaks cleanly over a sneaker. Hidden YKK zip pockets, elastic waist with a flat drawcord, ribbed cuff. The trousers you'll keep reaching for past the moment they should've been retired — and they won't be, because they're built to outlast that moment.

How it's made
Four standards we don't move on.
Embroidered, not printed
Every wordmark is stitched in matched-tone thread. It softens with wear, doesn't crack, doesn't peel, doesn't fade after the tenth wash.
Heavyweight cotton
12oz tees, 550gsm hoodies, 450gsm sweats. The hand-feel does the talking — no graphics required, no marketing-grade fabric tricks.
Garment-washed
Every piece is washed before it ships. What you receive is the final dimension — no first-wash shrinkage, no surprise drape change.
Small-batch QC
Every piece is inspected by hand before it leaves the warehouse. Loose thread, off-stitch, off-tone — it doesn't ship. We sell the rejects to staff at cost.
Where it's made
Portugal and Italy. The same mills, every season.
The tee, hoodie, and sweats are cut and sewn in a family-run factory north of Porto that's been making knitwear since 1962. The bomber is built in a small Brescia atelier that lines outerwear for two of the names you'd recognise — and us.
We pay full price up-front, take no discount for volume, and visit twice a year. The makers earn a fair wage, work fair hours, and put their name on what they ship. That's the deal that gets us the quality on the rack.
Sizing
Cut for a body, not a mannequin.
Our pieces are cut on the relaxed side of true to size. If you're between sizes, size down for a fitted silhouette, size up for the dropped-shoulder look the lookbook is shot in.
| Size | Chest (in) | Waist (in) | Height |
|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 34–36 | 26–28 | 5'4"–5'6" |
| S | 36–38 | 28–30 | 5'6"–5'8" |
| M | 38–40 | 30–32 | 5'8"–5'10" |
| L | 40–42 | 32–34 | 5'10"–6'0" |
| XL | 42–44 | 34–36 | 6'0"–6'2" |
| XXL | 44–46 | 36–38 | 6'2"+ |
Care
Treat it like it cost something.
Cold wash, inside out, with similar tones — onyx stays onyx longer.
Tumble low or hang dry. Heat is the enemy of every piece on this page.
Don't iron over embroidery. Steam from the back if you must.
The bomber is dry-clean only. Spot-clean the lining with a damp cloth.
From the rotation
What owners say about the second year.
"Bought the hoodie eighteen months ago. It's now the only hoodie in the rotation. Holds shape, holds colour, holds up."
"The bomber is the nicest piece of outerwear I own. The lining alone is worth the price."
"I wear the tee three times a week. After a year of that, it still fits like the day I unboxed it."
Free worldwide shipping

Honest answers
Asked often.
Will it shrink?
Every piece is garment-washed before it ships. What you receive is the final dimension. Cold wash and low-tumble it for the lifespan it's designed for.
Is everything in one colour?
Onyx, across the capsule. We're a small operation and a single colourway lets us hold quality, hold stock, and avoid the markdown cycle the rest of the industry runs on.
Why is the tee $97?
12oz Portuguese combed cotton, garment-washed, hand-embroidered, made in a fairly-paid factory in a run of 800. Sold direct, with free shipping included. That's the math.
Will you restock the bomber?
No. The run of 200 is the run. When it's gone, the next outerwear piece will be a different cut, a different fabric, and a new numbered run.
Do you do exchanges?
Yes — same piece, different size, free both ways inside 30 days. Just email us and we send the prepaid label with the new size in the same shipment.
Four pieces. Order the one you'll wear most.
Free worldwide shipping, free returns inside 30 days, and the same email address that runs the warehouse if anything's off.
