SAPEURS - artistic activism
The Sapeurs, a term derived from "Sape" (Société des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Élégantes), represent a vibrant culture rooted in the Democratic Republic of Congo and other parts of Central Africa. These individuals, predominantly men, are known for their flamboyant style and dedication to fashion as a form of self-expression and identity. The Sapeurs use textiles as a powerful medium to convey their personality, social status, and cultural heritage.
Eco Herringbone Cap- coming for Nov 2024
Our new Eco- Herringbone Cap- launching Nov 2024. We have added a new cap to our beautiful collection which is made from a stunning navy tweed woven exclusively in the Colne Valley .
The 'Heart of Huddersfield' Range has been developed by Fabworks and each fabric has been designed and crafted using as many eco-conscious processes as possible, from the sourcing of raw materials to adding the final finishing touches and even transportation methods taken into account. Partnering with local mills that prioritise renewable energy, low-impact finishing, and reduced waste, every metre of fabric in their new collection leaves the lightest footprint possible.
We are starting with a new cap in their Blackthorn Blue colorway, with a mustard under peak. The cap will be available from Nov 2024.
