Hul le Kes’ approach to sizing and inclusion

September 4, 2025

We believe that clothing should serve people, not the other way around. From the very beginning, our work has been shaped by the conviction that all people are equal, regardless of how you feel, the pronouns you use, or the body you inhabit. Clothing should never restrict you. It should move with you, express you, and offer a sense of freedom.

We like to say: Hul le Kes is for people of character. And character is not defined by gender or size; it’s defined by individuality, by the way you live and the way you wear your story.

inclusion in our sizes

Our belief in people’s personal character forms the heart of our sizing philosophy. Instead of confining you to a binary system, we created our own sizing method, one that allows you to decide how your garment should fit. Prefer a more fitted look? Or something oversized and flowing? It’s entirely up to you.

Our sizes are designed to work across a range of bodies; male, female, non-binary, or anything in between.

And while we do include familiar sizing references in our webshop for ease, the underlying system is about freedom. It’s about wearing something in a way that feels right to you; unbothered by outdated norms, unconcerned with anyone else’s definition of what fits.

inclusion on the floor

Our inclusive philosophy extends far beyond our garments; it’s embedded in every part of our company. At Hul le Kes, we intentionally build a team as diverse as the world around us. People of different ages, cultural backgrounds, and gender expressions come together in our studios, each bringing their own story, skill, and spirit.

We don’t look first at what someone cannot do. We look at what makes them distinct. At the quiet strength of someone rebuilding their confidence. At the unexpected creativity of someone who’s never had the chance to show it. At the person’s hands that mend fabric and sometimes, themselves.

belonging

We believe there’s a place for everyone in this world, and we try to reflect that truth in everything we do. From our gender neutral sizing to our inclusive hiring practices, Hul le Kes is built on the idea that difference is not a problem to solve, but a gift to cherish.

Our garments may be stitched by many different hands, but each piece carries the same message: you belong. And you deserve clothing, and a world, that recognises your worth, exactly as you are!

about Hul le Kes sizing

We use our own unique sizing system; designed to give wearers freedom of choice and to accommodate all bodies, regardless of gender. Our sizes range from 0 to 5, with 0 being the smallest and 5 the largest. For more relaxed garments, we often use combined sizes, such as 0|1, 2|3, or 4|5.

This creates flexibility in fit and makes it easier to choose whether you want a more fitted or oversized silhouette.

You’ll find reference points to standard size ranges in our webshop to help guide you, but we encourage you to choose the size that feels right for you; not what a label dictates. More information about sizing can be found on this page.
