Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Jack/Knife Outfitters Apparel is Personally Made by a Team

— April 27, 2014 — Fashion
The Jack/Knife Outfitters label is the work of designers John, Nick and Melissa who are all based in San Francisco. The trio makes the brands pieces by hand, each one conceived of and stitched together in their studio.

Jack/Knife Outfitters specializes in denim, apparent in these images via dark jeans, light blue button-up oxford shirts and plaid pieces. And while the team is dedicated to the production of denim, they have also been working more recently with cotton materials.
