Story

We began in 2019 as an experiment in workwear.

From our studio in Manchester, we put together a new take on the French chore coata hardwearing jacket brought to prominence by artisans and labourers of the 20th Century.

Executed with an absolute commitment to integrity, simplicity and invention, what became known as the 3001 overshirt was made to be worn well and lived fully in - understated skill playfully expressed.

Fast forward to today and the love of heritage, creativity and materials we poured into that 3001 now floods all kinds of fashion genres, styles, fabrics and accessories.

Ethos

We want anyone who wears Uskees to feel so confident and comfortable that they're freed up to focus on what’s important — to be in command of their destiny whatever form it may take.

Our inspiration is the arts and culture, and the people and places behind it. Whether we’re flushing a design with bold, tactile colours, introducing bespoke elements or unexpected technologies and materials, the idea is to stay true to the spirit of the garment whilst recontextualising it through a modern lens.

We want to encourage a stronger, more lasting relationship between you and the garments you wear.

To that end, our products are only ever made using premium, durable fabrics, and they're reinforced, triple-stitched and flat fell seamed wherever needed. We also offer a free repair service and buyback scheme for our members.
