MAC

Founded in 1973, MAC is a German company specialising in trousers and jeans. They aim for fashionable creativity along with durability. All their garments are very well made using quality cloths which will last for many years. Each of their designs carries a name – for example, Angela, Carrie etc. which they interpret as a particular ‘cut’. Each season, the names remain, however the fabric and finishing moves with the current fashion, offering a reliable fit people stay with again and again. We have chosen to work with MAC as they offer most of their trousers in different lengths, allowing us to bring you their great choice of clothing in either a 28” or 30” leg.

Pure Handknit

A new brand joining us for AW'09. Their first collection was in 1998, with a focus on the craft of hand knitting. At the heart of Pure Handknit are over 3500 women knitters in Chiang Mai in Thailand, creating great opportunities and ethical work for these hard working women. The designs come out of Canada, and then each piece is knitted by hand with skill and patience, all crafted in 100% cotton. Pure Handknit also donate 1% of their global sales to benefit those in need with local charities. And finally, the environment is very high on their agenda, with the Canadian head office and Chiang Mail facility using solar power to heat domestic water. Most materials used are recycled and they plant trees for shade and to help offset their carbon footprint. Definitely a brand with that 'feel good factor'...!
