About
KOEN (Kō-en, 公園), Japanese for "Park“, "Public Garden“.
Nature is our public garden, offering us tranquility and peace at any time. It provides us with healthy food - and with the most beautiful fibers from plants and animals to create clothes that soothe the body and mind. The aim of KOEN is to bring us close again to this simple connection.
For our clothes and accessories, we use 100% organic fabrics and sewing threads, sourced as close as possible to our Swiss production site. All parts of our garments are made from natural materials - fully plastic-free and biodegradable. You will find further information about the materials used in the online description of each piece. Our vision for the future is to go beyond organic and to promote regenerative farming methods for fiber plants in Switzerland and other European countries.
The style of KOEN is relaxed and minimalist. The clothes are designed to promote wellbeing in our bodies, while offering a clear and refined aesthetic.
We believe that in today's world, it is important to return to local production - because it is sustainable, revitalizes local resources and communities, and brings the consumer the joy of high-quality and unique products that cannot be found anywhere else. All our garments are carefully handmade in Switzerland with high-grade finishing.
