Select your vintage blanket and we will make your personal Cremer Jacket.
The Cremer Jacket is a fully upcycled wool jacket with two big pockets and a snap button closure on front. The collar and bindings are made from dead-stock ribbed fabrics. The slightly boxy fit makes it comfortable and wearable for all different body types and genders. A perfect choice for autumn and winter as the wool will keep you well isolated.
“I hate good taste. It’s the worst thing that can happen to a creative person”
– Jan Cremer
The Hul le Kes Cremer Jacket is named after Dutch painter and author Jan Cremer (1940). The sight of Cremer’s atelier being notoriously messy puts a smile on Sjaak’s face. Being a bit of a braggy controversial character in Dutch culture, Cremer’s paintings nonetheless fill us with inspiration.
This garment will be made from the vintage blanket you have selected. These vintage blankets are 100% wool and collected via our recycling partners or via donations people have made.
At our Manufacturing Studio we will do our best to make sure only the good parts of the vintage blankets are used. In some cases our Recovery Studio will make small repairs to the old material to make sure we can upcycle as much materials as possible.
The Cremer Jacket is designed as a slightly oversized jacket. It comes with extra long sleeves to keep your hands warm during the cold days. In case that is not needed you can easily roll your sleeve up.
Sizes of the garments shown in the pictures can be found hereunder (see here how these sizes are measured):
Each of these Cremer Jackets will get its own unique code and a matching Clothing Passport. Make sure to use the passport to create your personal narrative.
Are you done with the jacket? We are always happy to receive old items back, especially if they are provided with their original passport. Or give the jacket, including its passport, to your beloved friend or family member. But never forget: do not throw away your Hul le Kes garment.
