Bleu de Paname
Bleu de Paname is a Parisian menswear label founded in 2009 by Christophe Lépine and Thomas Giorgetti around "updated" French workwear. Collections centre on indigo chore coats, denim and canvas outerwear, wide utility trousers, cable knits and caps, cut loose but sober, in workwear blues, ecru and khaki. The brand promotes a made-in-France production philosophy and traditional artisanal techniques. Past collaborators include Comme des Garçons, Hong Kong concept store CLOT and French rapper Oxmo Puccino; a first womenswear capsule extended the mainly men's range.

Does Bleu de Paname run big or small?
Bleu de Paname fits slightly small. Most shoppers find the French sizing runs about one size small, so sizing up one is the safer bet unless you want a trim, shrunken workwear look. Garments are cut in a loose, sober French workwear silhouette but labelled on French/European sizing, so many buyers report the tagged size feels one step smaller than expected while the overall shape still reads roomy and boxy.
