Atreebutes

Swiss creatives Frederik Kalbermatten and Nicolas Müller bring their clothing label Atreebutes to the USA in the form of an online store. www.atreebutes.com

This is the first time the organic men’s streetwear label is available for purchase in America.

Dripping with class and European taste, Atreebutes is dewy-eyed yet sharp minded. For the Swiss founders, this means ethical production practices embodied in impeccable style.

The current pieces available online are limited, just a small taste of what is to come. The upcoming collection will be certified through the Global Organic Textile Standard, a monitor of both the social as well as the ecological conditions of clothing production. Working with GOTS gives the assurance the Atreebutes production team is getting paid fair wages and that they aren’t subject to harmful chemicals, a subject that is important for both Nico and Fredi.

“Atreebutes is two fingers down, it’s fashion, clothing I want to wear out to a restaurant or in the city. I don’t want to look like a mountaineer 24/7. It’s also about living your life to the fullest, and knowing that you living well enables others to live well. We work with GOTS because it is important to us to know we are making clothing just the way we want to.” –Fredi Kalbermatten

Fredi, in collaboration with filmmakers, is in the process of making a documentary about the fabrication of Atreebutes clothing. He will be traveling to India, visiting the organic cotton fields, the knitters, ginners, dyers, and all the different aspects of the clothing production.
