Cutting a wrap coat, November.
The workshop

Cut on 82 Avenue. Tested on the coldest morning of the year.

Firn started in 2019 as one machine in a Ritchie garage. Every parka still goes through the same six hands, from the first cut to the last bar tack.

We do not send anything to a lab. We wear it, outside, on the mornings the school buses are cancelled, and we publish the number we get.

Come and try it on.

Fit is the whole point of a parka. Bring the layers you actually wear and we will find the size that works over them.
