The Cold War Cap
This design traces its roots to a Cold War era Soviet protective cap. Built for soldiers operating in shifting conditions where the weather was rarely the greatest threat. We kept the integrity of the original: the visor, extended ear flaps, and snap-on face covering once designed to work alongside goggles or a gas mask. It was equipment first. Style was never part of the mission… until we got a hold of it.
The removable face guard and ear flaps let you transform it to a clean structured cap. Wear it stripped back. Wear it fully buttoned. Somewhere in between.

The 12 Tailors
A team of 12 master tailors handcrafts our pieces using age-old techniques. We reject the assembly-line process of mass production and focus instead on craftsmanship. Released in limited numbers, each piece lists its born date and the exact number of units made, offering a rare addition to your collection.
Single Release Items
Our limited-release pieces are made as a single edition. Once sold out, they are not reissued or restocked.
Made in Italy
Old-world tradition shapes our respect for craft, deepened by our Creative Director’s Italian heritage. We make our pieces in small workshops, where craft is passed down through generations. Fabric is cut by hand. Patterns are drawn in chalk. Every line is guided by a trained eye, not a machine. You feel the difference when you wear it.
It’s not the easiest way to make clothing. It’s the best.
