Handmade for Over 25 Years
Founded in May 2001 by Matthew Deponte, Crisiswear was established with a simple yet powerful mission: to create high-quality, meticulously designed garments that stand the test of time. Unlike traditional fashion brands that mass-produce clothing, Crisiswear embraces small-batch manufacturing, ensuring that each piece is crafted with precision and care. The brand prioritizes sustainability, sourcing ethical textiles, and minimizing waste through controlled production runs. Beyond creating exceptional clothing, Crisiswear is dedicated to education and community development. The company offers internship programs that provide hands-on training to individuals eager to learn the trade, extending beyond traditional students to anyone interested in garment construction. This initiative reflects the company’s commitment to fostering a sustainable and skilled workforce in the fashion industry.
