From Sketch to Stitch: The Creative Journey Behind an Escala Piece

At Escala, every piece we create tells a story. For us, it’s never just about making clothes—it’s about crafting something meaningful, something that reflects who we are and who you are when you wear it.

Our process begins with a simple sketch. Often, it starts with an idea sparked by art, music, or even the textures of everyday life. We sit down as a team, imagining how this idea can transform into something you’d love to wear—something timeless.

Once the design is on paper, we carefully select the perfect fabric. It’s not just about how it looks; it’s about how it feels, how it moves, and how it will hold up over time. For instance, the Black Sherpa Jacket wasn’t just about warmth—it was about creating a piece that wraps you in comfort while still looking sharp.

From there, we dive into sampling. It’s a meticulous process where every seam and stitch is scrutinized. If it doesn’t feel right, we go back and tweak it until it’s perfect. Sometimes that takes days; sometimes, it takes months. We’re okay with that because we believe quality takes time.

When you put on an Escala piece, we want you to feel everything we put into it—the creativity, the care, the attention to detail. It’s a journey we’re proud of, and we’re so grateful you’re part of it.
