THE LONE SOLDIER BY HAMANSUTRA
RTW 2022/2023
HAMANSUTRA’S Workwear line features US and German Army clothing from the 30s to 70s – the Holy Grail, like US Army Shirts, M-65 Jacket, Tote Bag, US Army Coverall, Type 1 Jacket in Denim Blue and so on. It could be described as “reexamined clothing to replicate original deadstock models” or, as I often quote, “Originals – Updated”. Designs that have had minor changes that bring them bang up to date for our contemporary age. Hamansutra clothing proudly bears Union Special Machines labels to showcase its exclusive manufacture on Union Special Machines.

RTW 2023 CAMPAIGN
THE LONE SOLDIER
RTW 2022/2023
In the 1980s I was obsessed by the Lone Ranger cartoon series. For me, he was up there with the greatest Marvel heroes. My everything. I turned “The Lone Ranger” into “The Lone Soldier”. The name says it all. The only soldier who pours all his might into making his ideas become reality and protecting them – always alert for confrontation.

BAVARIAN PANTS
Bavarian Pants from 1796 / Originals / Updated by hamansutra.
This is what Levi Strauss was probably wearing as a kid before he moved to the USA. All my patterns are tailored to modern body shapes and carefully modified. I always recommend buying 2 at once. Really durable, they make it so easy to pack a suitcase. White shirts, boots and denim. I’ve always been fascinated by basic clothing, clothes for life. Note that all my clothing comes with washing instructions. Labels made out of calf leather and Cooper Buttons from Paris. The denim was produced by an Italian textile weaver, transforming finest old cotton into new upcycled denim fabric. Our products are made by the best specialist manufacturers.
Made in Germany from Italian Denim and Created Exclusively on Union Special Machines.

“Created Exclusively on Union Special Machines”
Union Special – Since 1881 officially appoints hamansutra – Since 1996 as the new cooperation partner of this legendary industrial sewing machine brand. Hamansutra clothing now proudly bears Union Special Machines labels to showcase its exclusive manufacture on Union Special Machines. Made in Germany, USA and Japan. The sewing machine company and designer share the philosophy:
“Standard of Excellence + Quality = Never on Sale”
Length fittings are in Munich by appointment, all jeans shortened to your length. These jeans I’m working on now are available in Japanese Denim 16oz denim. All my jeans follow the shrink-to-fit philosophy, meaning the fabric can shrink up to 10%. I’ve drawn up a great user manual to guide you – follow these instructions and treat your pants right, and you’ll get up to 20 years of pleasure out of them. You can also email me your pants size and I’ll send the jeans anywhere in the world. I want to say something about the Japanese denims I use. The fabric is fantastic and will make you feel as strong and invincible as 16th-century Samurai knights in armour. Did you know they wore undershirts and underwear that had been indigo-dyed, because indigo protects the skin from bacteria? All my Japanese denim is selvedge denim, still made in the original way on small looms so that nothing is wasted in cutting. So, that’s the latest news about my jeans. Labels made out of calf leather, denim from Japan and Cooper Buttons from Paris. Our products are made by the best specialist manufacturers.

BEKLEIDUNGSWERKE
Clothing works + Hot War = Pure performance
Germany’s tailoring and textile industries used to be world class – especially their engineering. And the way people dressed. Yep, the personalities from way back then are what we’re missing today. In-depth anatomy studies and life drawings were paramount in producing patterns of mathematical accuracy. These clothing items are still copied today. And let’s not even start on military clothing. Today, Germany’s clothing industry has lost it. They don’t want to get their fingers dirty, I guess. What’s that you ask? What are all those sewing machines for? A man at a Singer sewing machine is like a woman on a Harley Davidson? Sneers like that only prove just who’s responsible for the decline of tailoring and for its dusty image. When people like that try to talk tailoring to me, I take the greatest pleasure in reducing them to matchwood. The finest German machines and the tailoring heritage were sold abroad for a pittance. Generation after generation abandoned the art of tailoring. The catastrophic result? Tailors that look like accountants. Not a spark of fashion awareness anywhere you look. But don’t you worry – all your agencies will be bankrupt soon enough.
Advertising agencies + hot air = earning your money.
