How Muttonhead builds for wet weather.

Weather sets the first limits on fabric, weight and shape at Muttonhead.

Start with the weather

The Toronto team begins with the conditions a product needs to handle: damp commutes, cold mornings, hard wear and repeated washing. Shape and fabric come before seasonal novelty.

Small production runs keep the cutting room close to the final garment. Problems are visible early, and patterns can be adjusted before hundreds of pieces exist.

What local production changes

Local production shortens the distance between design, cutting and accountability. The team can correct a weak seam, replace unsuitable hardware or change a fabric before a full run is complete.
