There’s a lot but some of my favourites are Document (Korean brand), Arpenteur (amazing brand from my city), A Kind of Guise (German brand), Borali (very small label, the blog is very worth it if you can read French/use a translator), Orslow, ADER error (although some pieces have a bit too much plastic but the ones I own are very sturdy, also a bit overpriced), Maison Kitsune (same but I’m too much into foxes to skip this one lol), Matsuda (Japanese eyewear, handmade with awesome details and materials), …
Nobody seems to "just make high quality clothes" anymore. It's always partly "we do clothing properly" but also "this is a modern art project, and also sometimes we don't do clothing properly".
The modern art vibes have always, frankly, disgusted me.
I'd much rather buy from a factory with a known location and a known manufacturing/tailoring process, with a sales tactic based purely on describing methodology and materials.
