Dungarees

These are just awesome, not sure there is much else to say!  But we better cover the features….

The dungarees have some amazing features, and all of them a bit quirky, because that’s the bad-ass look of a womxn on a mission.  From a side seam pocket, an opposite bum cheek’y’ pocket with a final bib pocket.  Who needs a handbag with all of this storage!  The bib base position is off centre at your waistband, but with clever zero waste angles the bib travels up your body and has got bust coverage sorted.  We just love how zero waste design has given us such cool styles!  Who knew....

The trouser style of these dungarees is a loose straight leg fit with a peaked hem line, with the longest peak dropping on the inside leg.

Available in the four iconic Element colours and available in our heavy weight fabric, for maximum density and structure.  We want to give you more, with access to the full range of options direct from our planet and people first design archives.  These are our bad-ass books of how to always wear your values and look amazing!  See full details below.

Who It's Made By

• Made by bad-ass womxn and men of the Scottish Highlands 
• Proudly preserving century old textile skills and machinery
• Also proudly disrupting the world of future clothing, we have seen the past and it works!

• Size – Made to Measure all the way! Your dungarees will be made to order, then despatched within 2 weeks of the fabric being woven during the 4 X A Year batch period.

• Leg Length – we have provided you with 3 inside leg length options to select from the drop down, however if you want these altered in any way then please just let us know in the notes section as you checkout.

• Natural Waist – we ask for your natural waist size, this can often be 5-8” above your hips depending on your height. This is where the dungarees fastening will sit, with a loose fit then remember you don’t need to go tight with it. The kilt strap and buckle closure will always give you a 3” bit of play

• Widest Hips – this can often include a bit of your bottom, so your widest part really. We want to make sure that you can sit down in these dungarees and not feel like you have been squeezed into them or even being squeezed out!

• Waist to Hips – this is to give us an indication of distance between where the waistband will fasten and your widest point. If you are for example really tall it means if we need to make any adjustments we can.

• Bust – we require your bust size to ensure that the bib created for your dungarees does all of the necessary boobie coverage, if you know what we mean!

• Item Finishing – Double tracked stitching for lasting seams, one feature kilt strap and buckle, with branded real leather label specifying the makers batch. Your dungarees also fasten over the shoulder with a hardware free strap and loop system, fully adjustable at anytime.

• Fabric Design - The Elements of Endurance Tartan, designed by us!

• Weave Design - repeated throughout the fabric is the alchemy element symbols, earth, air, water and fire, represented in triangle form.

• Fabric Repeat – all fabric has been cut by hand from the cloth roll woven at our mill, therefore aspects of the repeat will be unique to each item, which is pretty cool as it makes them all unique!

• Colour Options - Earth (brown), Air (grey), Water (blue) and Fire (red), each element tartan features four colours from the colour family it represents.

• Fabric Weight Options - Heavy (dense and structured)
