You’ve heard it before, but it bears repeating: the clothing industry is obscenely wasteful. As avid environmentalists ourselves, we knew from the outset that if we were going to build a brand, we had to be different from—and better than—our competitors; to build gear that would last For The Long Haul, to source high-quality, Responsible materials, and to be exacting in our practices and choosy about our partnerships. It’s no exaggeration to say that protecting the planet and its people factors into every single decision we make, and we’re incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished thus far. That said, no matter how vigilant we are, things don’t always go according to plan. Thankfully, we’ve gotten pretty good at improvising over the years.
To make a long story short, we recently ended up with extra units of some of our core silhouettes: The Jack in Everyday Oxford and The Chino. Other brands wouldn’t think twice about disposing of excess inventory to make room for next season—sending it to the incinerator or, worse still, the landfill—but that’s not our style. Rather than simply chalking it up to bad luck and moving on, we knew we had to do right by these pieces, so we reached out to our buddy Maurizio Donadi.
Maurizio, who spent decades bouncing around the industry’s upper echelons (including stints at Armani, Ralph Lauren, and Levi’s), knows a thing or two about on-the-fly thinking and creative solutions to complicated problems. He’s been in this game longer than most, and thanks to his encyclopedic knowledge of fashion’s history—and a keenly developed intuition for trends—he’s earned a reputation as a visionary tastemaker. After years of lending his talents to other brands, and with his bonafides firmly established, Maurizio relocated to Los Angeles and set up his own operation: Atelier & Repairs. His philosophy is simple:
Waste Less, Reimagine more.
