Cut slim, and coming in a Skittles-bag-worth of go-to-hell hues, the trousers are like a weekend trip to Martha’s Vineyard for your legs, only without all the insufferable white people. Read More

If there’s one thing you can count on Scandinavians for, aside from blonde hair, blue eyes and terrifying music, it’s great cold weather wear. After all, the average Scandinavian winter is something like 14 months long [ed note: statement not fact checked]; ample time to master the art of staying warm yet stylish. Read More

After this summer’s rash of heat waves, I know I’m not alone in eagerly awaiting the arrival of cooler weather. And, I’m pretty sure I also won’t be alone in wanting the Markus Knit Sweater from Knowledge on my back when it gets here. Made in Scandinavia from butter-soft 100% organic cotton, the shawl collared Markus is as decadently comfortable as it well made, and a great looking layer to take you from this season to the next (and to the one after that too).

Between having no American stockists, and receiving almost no mentions in the American press, it’s understandable if you aren’t familiar with Denmark’s Knowledge Cotton Apparel. That said, I can tell you from my own experience they’re well worth getting acquainted with. Not only do their pieces fit and look great, they’re also made in the EU and entirely from organic cotton (remember that stuff?). Read More

The Twisted Twill Chinos are handcrafted in the EU from low-impact dye treated 100% organic cotton. Read More
File under: more of this please. The Twisted Twill Anorak from Denmark’s Knowledge Cotton Apparel is responsibly made in the EU from naturally waxed 100% organic cotton. Cut generously so it can easily be layered under, the jacket is a great outerwear option to take you from early spring’s chilly showers to late summer’s doggiest days. Details include organic cotton rope drawstings at the hood and bottom opening, a kangaroo front pocket with top and side entry, adjustable cuffs and a small goods zippered pocket on the sleeve.

Who’s ready for a little more Knowledge Cotton Apparel AW10 goodness? I know I sure am. One of my personal favorites from the label’s superb fall shirting range, the Sander Shirt is ethically made in South America from heavy-weight organic cotton flannel (colored with low-impact dyes, of course). Designed with a Denmark winter in mind (did I mention the brand’s Danish?), the shirt’s as brawny as it is warm, and works great both on its own and as an over-shirt (would look damn good under a sweater too).

In other Scandinavian-designed, sustainably made clothing news: the full AW10 collection from Danish brand – and personal favorite – Knowledge Cotton Apparel has just been added to the label’s webshop. And while the company’s colorful as all-get-out bottoms were the summer range’s highlight, this season, it’s all about the knitwear. Ethically made in the EU from low-impact dye treated organic cotton and / or humanely harvested organic wool, the sweaters are enough to get anyone wishing for an early winter. Read More
If you’re like me, then you spent more time than you’d like to admit last week poring over street style images from Pitti Uomo. Subsequently, if you’re like me, your desire to wear colorful as all get-out pants (or shorts, considering that it’s been up in the 90s the past few days) is at an all time high. Fortunately, Denmark’s Knowledge Cotton Apparel has got you (us) covered. The Twisted Twill Shorts are made from certified organic cotton that’s been colored with low-impact dyes. Read More
Like I said before, the SS10 collection from Denmark’s Knowledge Cotton Apparel is far and away one of the best of the season. Incorporating style elements from an array of eras, the range is full of the kind of understated wardrobe essentials that always look good, regardless of the trends. The Molten Lava Check Shirt is ethically made in South America from low-impact dyed organic cotton oxford. A modern take on the classic 60’s-era surf shirt, the MLCS has a slim fit, soft, broken-in hand, and one of the greatest color schemes you’ll see this summer (the blue version is pretty good too).
