Archives sale: Soeur pieces over €200

The pieces in this selection are the ones kept longest. Above €200, the archives sale most often brings together the coats, leather and shearling jackets, leather bags and shoes from past Soeur collections, offered at reduced prices. Pieces that call for particular craftsmanship, from the choice of hide or wool cloth through to the finishing touches.

The makers’ craftsmanship

Behind a wool coat or a leather bag, there are workshops Soeur has come to know over the years. The house favours long-term partnerships with its makers, nearly half of whom have worked with it for more than five years, and most of its pieces are produced in Europe and North Africa. This lasting relationship shows in the details: the evenness of the topstitching, the shape of a shoulder or the finish of a leather edge.

Investing in a defining piece

A wool coat or leather bag is rarely chosen on a whim. You imagine it through several winters, with different outfits, at work and at weekends. The archives sale offers a chance to find these pieces at a gentler price, with complimentary delivery and returns so you can try them at home. For a smaller budget, the selection between €100 and €200 offers other possibilities.
