Degen Edie Tee- Poppy

At DEGEN, we believe that how something is made matters just as much as what it becomes. Because how something is made impacts its ability to last and because we care for the people who make it.

We work with artisans and specialized factories around the world, selecting partners for their deep expertise and long-standing relationships with the materials they work with. Our collaborators are located in the United States, Wales, South Korea, China, Peru, India, Pakistan, and Japan. These are all places where specific craft traditions and technical knowledge have developed over generations.

Whenever possible, we work with partners whose materials are local to their region. Wool spun near the farms where it is raised. Cotton grown near the mills that weave it. Factories whose machinery, workers, and knowledge have evolved around those materials.
