Wherever you are starting
Two ways in.
You have the designs
Send us sketches, references or a tech pack. We turn them into production-ready specs, sample them, and fit them until they are right.
You have the idea
Bring a mood, a muse or a single reference. Our design studio develops the collection with you, then takes it into sampling.
Start to finish
One studio, every step.
- 01
Design
Our New York design studio draws the collection with you, or works from the designs you already have.
- 02
Tech packs and fit
Production-ready tech packs, CADs and graded specs. No technical department? Our experienced professionals do the work for you.
- 03
Samples
First samples in as little as 7–14 days, so you can see it, wear it and change it before anything is made.
- 04
Production
Sweaters and knitwear since 1991, cut-and-sew knits and wovens since 2024, made with audited partners across China, Vietnam and Cambodia.

Your label on it
Custom woven and printed labels, branded hangtags and packaging, and price tickets attached, so it arrives floor-ready for the boutique.
Proof, not promises
We built our own label first.
Brass Sailor is our own label, made by the same studio and the same production partners that will make yours. Everything on this page, we have done for ourselves.
