Also love a brand called Knitbrary. It's so expensive but a lot of it is handmade. https://www.knitbrary.com/

Very interesting to hear what you like @deborah_dbf,
I’ve been thinking that DBF also correspond well with Barena Venezia, or am I wrong?

So glad also that a favourite shop Lund & Lund now is a retailer. First time in Stockholm!

Hi @De Bonne Facture, @deborah_dbf, and all,

I am going to be visiting Paris mid-December. Of course, I plan to stop by DBF! But I'm wondering if you have recommendations for other shops to visit. I'd be particularly interested in secondhand or vintage stores, as well as interesting brands that are hard to find outside of France, menswear and womenswear both. In terms of price, places in the range of DBF or less (more affordable options are very much welcome).

Thanks!

Would love to hear from the DBF team which brands are "friends of DBF" both in terms of sharing a commitment to the environment and looking good when mixed together.
I feel that Inis Meáin and DBF are complementing brands, two sides of the same coin (I'm sure that's a big surprise to those who follow the No Man Walks Alone thread ;)).

How is the hand feel? I'm assuming this a fairly soft, non-scratchy wool?
The best I can describe it is a dry textured hand. To me it's not scratchy, but not soft either. I love textures on sweaters, so this is ideal.

Anyone else have difficulty getting in touch with DBF customer service? I've emailed a couple of times over the past weeks and haven't received a response.

Hello! Anyone know what color this is of the grandad coat (or perhaps it is unreleased)?:
