  • Wool & Water: handmade, limited edition braces from Amsterdam

    August 07, 2024

    Wool & Water: handgemaakte, gelimiteerde bretels uit Amsterdam

    If there is one distinctive brand in braces, it is Wool & Water . This refined company from Amsterdam produces accessories that every dandy would doff his hat to. All braces are handmade, in a limited edition of 25 pieces. Each item is unique; each one gets its own, unique product number. Completely in line with their mission: celebrating your individual expression of style and personality. Of course, we can only applaud them heartily for that.

    Assortment

    Wool & Water’s range doesn’t just consist of braces (although these are of course the spearhead of any self-respecting clothing manufacturer); they also offer knitted bow ties, ties and lapel pins. Which is good, since the regular brace is gaining popularity, and the dandy has to look elsewhere. Their braces – always in two colours – have a detailed, intricate structure, which makes them an absolute eye-catcher, and each one is unique. All sustainably produced and hand-knitted in Amsterdam. You can support the domestic economy, while ordering all your accessories in the same colour (really, we strongly advise against that).

    In addition to all this beauty, professional chic can also go to them for a small additional charge for 'Bespoke', which means: custom-made.

    But: gentlemen with dogs, gentlemen with cats, pay attention now. Do you also find pets so ordinary, are you looking for a solution, but do you not want to wash jumpsuits for your dog? Wool & Water offers dandy-worthy custom clothing for your animal. Their special pet line is just as handmade, and turns your ordinary house dog into a rebellious style icon.

    How Wool&Water produces

    When we say that Wool & Water products are produced sustainably, we are serious. All products consist exclusively of wool and cotton, and are therefore completely organic. Hand-knitted (that has arrived by now) and finished with a hand-powered sewing machine from 1979. Each item is finished with care. No electricity, no polyester, and no chemical treatment is used. In this way, Wool & Water serves the enlightened man with detailed items, without burdening the environment, so that you not only feel enlightened, but also elevated.

    History of Wool & Water

    Founded in 2013 in the heart of Amsterdam, Wool & Water offers exactly what you need to stand out in one of the most striking countries on earth. Okay, that must cost a bit, you think; that's not so bad. Okay, that must require a lot of sweaty workers, you think; no, just one lady who likes to fill her time with knotting threads. Alice, British actress (including Silent Witness and Doctor Who), found that work on set mainly consists of waiting. She decided to learn to crochet, and has spent her time in between lines with her craft ever since. That all sounds sweet, but it's serious: in 2013 she graduated as a Knitwear Designer from Knit One in Brighton, moved to Amsterdam, and is the owner of Wool & Water. Judging by the amount of products, she is still a fervent actress.

    Als we het hebben over iconische dragers van bretels, kunnen we niet om Alfie uit de populaire serie Emily in Paris heen. Deze charmante Brit weet als geen ander hoe hij Britse elegantie kan combineren met een vleugje Franse nonchalance. Zijn stijl is niet alleen een lust voor het oog, maar ook een bron van inspiratie voor mannen die een moderne draai willen geven aan klassieke mode.
