The unique story behind your coat:
“ In 2021 I bought an old sleeping bag online, a charming find from Marrie. This treasured blanket played a role in the nostalgia of family caravan holidays in the picturesque Groningen campsites in the 80’s. Maria's daughter, Dajana, took up the tradition and wrapped herself in the same cosy sleeping bag during happy school holidays. I love this blanket Jacket because it carries the warmth of family and summer adventures. Raw material costs around 85 - 90 euros including the trim in wool dark green.
Crafted by Katerina, who mended, and hand washed the blanket, designed the pattern, deconstructed, and cut the material. Sewn by Yasar 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 40 years.
Wear it with joy for years to come and then add your story to it and give it to your loved ones.”
