If you’re acquainted with the key figures in Norwegian men’s fashion, you’ve likely come across the name Andreas Feet. With a background that includes tailoring expertise from Savile Row and numerous TV appearances, Andres has been a prominent voice in the Norwegian sartorial scene. Today, he continues to elevate men’s fashion through his store and brand at Aker Brygge in Oslo.
The store features the style of British Ivy League, with a strong emphasis on high-quality craftsmanship. It offers a carefully curated selection of accessories, knitwear, a variation of garment treatment products, and some off-the-rack clothing. Customers can explore an impressive array of fabric books, and of course there are fitting models for when you want to get a tailored suit.
The evening featured a quiz with fashion related questions, and a lucky winner got take home a "re-loved" Barbour jacked that had been patched up with tweed from Lovat.
Guests had the opportunity to try on the new jeans model that, with the option to be first in line to pre-order. The discussion naturally turned to what makes a great pair of jeans. For me, it's essential to have a fairly high waist combined with spacious, comfortable legs. However, this needs to be balanced in a way that doesn't make you look like an old fashioned cowboy. I think Andreas has struck the perfect balance with his design. The jeans we tried on in the store were nearly final, with just a slight adjustment planned—an additional centimetre in the leg opening—to perfect the fit. I’m excited to see the finished product!
It was truly a pleasure to reconnect with like-minded individuals and engage in conversations that ranged from style and fashion to politics and economics.
A heartfelt thank you to Andreas and his team for hosting such a wonderful event and for staying engaged in discussions well past closing time. I’m eagerly anticipating the upcoming releases from this brand and wish them every success with the launch of the new jeans.
Cheers!
