About

Éide is Irish for uniform. This project has been a labour of love over the past three years. Born in Paris and finished in Belfast, with a simple goal of making a limited run of chore jackets that you can wear to work.

Éide Clothing is a side project of Éide Studio, a Belfast-based software and design studio. Started in 2018, we are internet makers, and this is our first foray into making a physical product.

This project began ambitiously: Irish designers, Irish materials, Irish manufacturing. We still hope to get there one day. For now, we've reached across the globe to build the team that makes this jacket. It's designed, graded and patterned here in Ireland with some help from an ex-Burberry designer. The cut-and-sew takes place in Jiangsu, China. Final finishing and adornment happens back here in Belfast.

We're proud of our manufacturing partners in Jiangsu for their commitment to quality and to ethical practice, they're certified by the Better Cotton Initiative and have confirmed compliance with anti-modern-slavery standards.

We've agonised over every detail of this jacket for three years. A love of vintage work blues, never being able to find one that actually fit, and wanting to make a uniform we wanted to wear. Those three things shaped everything else.

We really hope you like it.
