The unique story behind your coat:
“ The sleeping bag blanket was handpicked from a small village “Oss” in Netherlands, previously owned by ms Dorothee. She used those for family caravan vacations during the 70s and decided to part with it when her kids (twins daughters) outgrew the tradition. Raw material costs around 85 euros including the trim in wool brown.
Crafted by Katerina, who mended, and hand washed the blanket, designed the pattern, deconstructed, and cut the material. Sewn by Memo in our partner’s atelier, and the button loops were hand-sewn by Katerina herself.
We hope you find this story intriguing and enriching. Wrap yourself in warmth and comfort around the clock as the raw fabric has a rich history of over 50 years.
Wear it with joy for years to come and then add your story to it and give it to your loved ones.”

A Note on Vintage Textiles
All textiles are pre-washed before we begin any transformation process. Because we work with pre-loved vintage fabrics, minor imperfections may be present — part of the story and character of each piece.
Please note: colors may vary slightly from what you see on screen due to natural lighting and different screens. We do our best to show the true feel of the garment. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Reworked vintage pieces are final sale.
