THE BRAND : 

HANDCRAFTED CONTEMPORARY MENSWEAR
An antithesis to mass-produced fast-fashion, KARDO was launched in 2013 with a desire to slow things down and take care of the small details in menswear. Inspired by workwear and traditional tailoring, KARDO dresses the modern man with subtle twists on classic silhouettes.

HANDMADE WITH MINUTE DETAILS
KARDO honours traditional Indian weaving, dyeing, and printing techniques for its collections, using fabrics such as natural dyed handloom, block print, IKAT, natural indigo denim, Shibori, and Chikankari embroidery. We actively support and collaborate with handloom weaving communities across India in the hope that these traditional techniques do not die out and that our environmental impact is as low as possible.

We go even further through our specialised “ONExONE” production of our garments where each item is hand-cut, stitched by a single tailor from beginning to end, and carefully finished by hand.

IT'S NOT WHERE IT'S MADE THAT MATTERS, BUT WHO MADE IT AND UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS
Designed and manufactured in our own workshop in New Delhi, India, we celebrate our workers by paying fair wages for their expertise and providing a safe and healthy working environment. The provenance of our clothing is acknowledged by attaching a label to each garment highlighting the hands involved in making each piece.

CAREFULLY CRAFTED. BEAUTIFULLY AND RESPONSIBLY DESIGNED
