The minimum order value refers to the lowest value of a purchase order which must be met before we can process your order and deliver it to you. You will be notified via a message if the minimum order value is not met. You can always bump up your order by adding less expensive items to your basket, like gadgets, in order to reach the minimum order value test.

Baskets remain active for one hour, after which they are erased. They are also erased if you leave the page and end your session.

You are in no way obligated to purchase items that you put in your basket. The digital shopping basket works exactly like a real life one: You can place items in your basket and remove them again later. Only at the cash register do you actually decide what you want to buy.

The online shop area offers you an overview of all the products that you can purchase. Clicking on an item in the product overview leads you to the product detail page where you can choose between sizes and colors. Here, you can choose between all the available sizes and colors. Sold out products will be labeled as such, and only the sizes which are available are listed. You can place items in your basket by clicking the option “Add to Cart”. All the products you choose are gathered and saved there, so long as you do not end the purchase process. In the basket overview you have the option to remove items from your basket—simply click the text “Remove”, which is located to the right of each product. Click “Proceed the Checkout” once you have decided which products you want to buy. This leads you directly to a virtual form which you must fill out with your data. The purchase is finished once you have provided all the required information. You will then receive an order confirmation; this lets you know that your order has been processed by a member of our team. We then prepare your package for delivery before handing it over to our shipping partner. While this happens you will receive a shipping confirmation email. This lets you know that your package is on its way to you. Your order will arrive within approximately three working days.

We are currently updating our Size Guide. Please contact customer service if you want to know exact measurements of our products.

Because we treat our garments with color, we recommend that you wash any item before wearing it for the first time. Please check the individual washing instructions for each item.

This does not apply to rigid / rinsed denim pants.

Please note that untreated and unwashed pants require special care. Denim should be washed as little as possible in order to avoid shrinking and fading. If you purchase these kind of pants, you should not wash them during the first 9-12 months. If, however, you might need to wash the pants, you will find a few important tips on how to do so under the section, “How should garments be washed”.

Every item of clothing includes a label denoting the particular instructions for care. The recommended temperature should not be exceeded. It is also ok to wash our clothes at a lower temperature to the one stated in the washing instructions.

• Always wash inside-out
• Separately from other garments
• Leave for approximately 30 minutes in a bath of cold water with a mild liquid detergent
• Stir gently before finishing the wash in order to remove deposits
• Leave to dry on a clothesline

Please also note that rigid pants bleed out heavily if they are mishandled. This is because we use a natural dye called “Indigo”. You should also keep these pants away from lightly colored objects / furniture / garments. You can leave the pants in normal household vinegar for a few hours to help maintain the color.

We recommend washing knitted garments made of wool by hand, since they are also too sensitive for washing machines which have a gentle hand-wash function.

We only use leather sourced as a byproduct of farm animals that are reared for their meat. We do not use leather sourced from endangered species.

We only use down as a byproduct of farm animals that are reared for their meat. We do not condone or support live plucking procedures.

Our fur trimmings are made using faux fur.

Our sunglasses provide 100% UV protection.
