The materials. Cotton, flax, wool and other fibres where each product record supports them. Soil, sea and evergreen are a point of view, not a certification badge.
The Latin. Os — bone. The structure under everything. A wardrobe cut down to what holds you up: five garments, thick fabric, nothing decorative. Down to the bone.
The mark. A sun over the sea over the soil — the coast we make on, drawn in three strokes. You'll find it woven inside, and nowhere outside except a tonal degree mark at the hem.
OSSE is designed in Vancouver, on lands whose peoples have stewarded these forests, rivers and coastlines since time immemorial. This acknowledgement does not imply endorsement, partnership or permission.
We do not borrow Indigenous motifs. Any future collaboration will appear only with a named artist, their approval, and clear public credit and compensation terms. Until those relationships exist, no collaboration is advertised.
A tee, shirt, sweatshirt, hoodie and sweatpant anchor the collection. Newness has to earn its place.
Material and origin claims live beside the product, with anything unverified marked plainly.
Cut, weight and hand feel come first. The exterior remains deliberately restrained.
Clear care guidance and repair assessment come before replacement.
Fibre percentages, cloth weight and supplier certification scope are published only when records are available.
Thread, labels, buttons, drawcords and packaging are part of the record—not hidden behind a headline claim.
Design location and cutting, sewing or finishing location are stated separately for each product or batch.
Care, expected change and repair assessment are included. When evidence is pending, the page says so.
Collection updates, material notes and studio dispatches. Infrequent, considered and easy to leave.
Signups open at launch. For now, contact the studio by email.
