What to know about Danton
Danton is a workwear-rooted apparel label founded in 1935 by Gabriel Danton in Châtres-sur-Cher, France, supplying overalls, chore coats, cook's jackets and aprons to French laborers for decades. Revived and now designed and operated from Japan by Boy's Co., it produces unisex daily wear: down-filled and collarless jackets, shirts, sweatshirts, trousers, bags and hats, all marked by the red-and-white diamond logo patch. Lightweight fabrics, muted palettes and utilitarian detailing define the range, distributed through END., BEAMS and Japanese and European select shops.
