Wares — the apparel lineFB·W
Apparel, drawn to tolerance.
A small line of considered, heavyweight basics — knitwear, shirting, trousers, and outerwear built to a written spec and made to outlast the season that sold them. No drops, no hype; a catalogue that grows slowly and on purpose.
The current line
31 lotsTolerance Crewneck
$165A heavyweight loopback crewneck built to hold its shape past the point most sweatshirts give up.

Spec Trouser
$210A measured straight-leg trouser in a structured cotton ripstop with a touch of mechanical stretch.
Registration Tee
$70The baseline. A 220 GSM tee with a bound collar built to survive the wash a hundred times.

Gauge Beanie
$55A fine-gauge merino beanie knit to a true 12 gauge — close, warm, and not bulky.

$345A four-pocket field jacket in waxed ripstop — structured enough to hold a line, cut to layer over the rest of the line.
Foundry Hoodie
$185A 480 GSM loopback hoodie cut to the same standard as the Tolerance Crewneck — structured, not slouchy.

Field Short
$120A straight-cut ripstop short with a clean 7-inch inseam and a touch of mechanical stretch.
Register Polo

Gauge Scarf
$95A fine-gauge merino scarf knit to a true 12 gauge — warm and close, with no itch or bulk.
Standard Tote
$85A 16-ounce cotton canvas tote built like outerwear — boxed, bar-tacked, and made to carry weight.
Fixture Chore Coat
$245A boxy work coat in a hard cotton twill — three patch pockets, a clean button front, built to be worn as a soft jacket.
Ballast Vest
$165An insulated liner vest with a recycled ripstop shell — the warm layer that disappears under a coat.
Datum Mac
$310A long, clean single-breasted mac in wax-finished cotton gabardine — a coat drawn to one straight line.
Interlock Cardigan
$195A fine-gauge merino cardigan with a full button placket — the open layer the knitwear is measured against.

$175A fine-gauge merino quarter-zip with a stand collar — the pullover, drawn to a clean zip line.
Rib Knit Vest
$120A ribbed merino knit vest — a warm layer with the sleeves left out.
Baseline Long Sleeve

The standardFB·W·00
How the line is made.
The same discipline as the software side, applied to cloth — specified, sourced, and inspected before it reaches you.
Cut & sewn in Porto
Made in partner workshops in Portugal — and one Scottish knitter — chosen for the standard they hold, and named on every product.
Documented to the gram
Composition, weight, and construction are published on every lot. Nothing about how a garment is made is left vague.
Graded before dispatch
Seams and measurements are checked against the spec the garment came from. Work out of tolerance does not leave the floor.
Flat $12 shipping in the United States, free over $250, and a 30-day return on unworn goods. The full terms are in the Shipping & Refund Policy.
