SPECIALIZATION
UNISEX
Esemplare is an Italian fashion brand that reinterprets outdoor and military apparel for urban environments, creating a style often described as gorpcore. The brand operates under a unique non-profit model, reinvesting 100% of its profits into educational projects dedicated to preserving the heritage of Italian fashion craftsmanship for future generations. Acquired by the Pattern Group in 2014, Esemplare localizes its entire production process—from design to manufacturing—in Italy, collaborating with a select network of artisans who share its ethical and environmental values. This commitment is central to its identity, merging traditional techniques with modern technology like 3D modeling to develop its collections.
