How custom works

From idea to finished piece.

A direct, guided process with John from first conversation through final approval.

  1. 01

    Share the idea

    Tell John what it should mean, how it will be worn and what you are drawn to.

  2. 02

    Refine together

    Shape, materials and practical details are resolved with you.

  3. 03

    Approve the direction

    Approve the final design and pay a 50% deposit before production begins.

Production takes 4–6 weeks after both the 50% deposit and final design approval. Shipping timing depends on the piece and destination.
