ALEXANDER MANUFACTURING
FOR LA FETICHE

21.10.20

LA FETICHE is committed to supporting local scottish manufacturing & fortunately for us we are located close to one of the oldest waterproof coat-makers in Scotland ALEXANDER MANUFACTURING. These expert crafts people provide the manufacturing skills of a tradition that has remained virtually unchanged for the last 175 years.

LA FETICHE’s mission is to create new & exciting design whilst respecting the craft. Each season we collaborate with Alexanders to create a unique piece of outerwear. This highly skilled process involves 2 layers of cloth bonded together with an impenetrable barrier that ensures that the garment is 100% waterproof. Each article is first cut, then sewn by their team of machinists before it is passed to one of their experienced coat-makers. Interior seams and pockets are glued and taped by hand, before being rolled flat using a hardened steel hand roller then finished with a rubber cleaning wheel tool.

We are proud to work together with ALEXANDER MANUFACTURING, to celebrate this beautiful coat making Scottish tradition within the unique aesthetic of LA FETICHE.
