“
In the end, it's a very personal thing. I want to be true to myself and to others. I want to create something that I can stand behind 100%. I want to offer honest and good products that I use every day and that I can enjoy for a long time. And I believe that many people share this attitude with me.
”

Stephan Sunder-Plassmann

Co-Founder

“
It is simply a huge motivation for me when I realise that I have made my customers satisfied, and in a sustainable way. It's all about men who have already let off steam in terms of trends, who want to be well dressed every day, at work and at their leisure time, without having to stress too much about it.
