Wax London New for Spring 22
Wax is a London-based family label established in 2015, inspired by the places, faces and stories that surround them.
"Keeping sustainability at our core, our clothing is made with carefully sourced materials, designed to be worn and reworn, time and time again. Here to celebrate and elevate the everyday".
Welcome to Assembly
Based on a cobbled hill in the market town of Frome, I strive to showcase honest, quality clothing with a known provenance. If you pop in on a quiet, midweek afternoon you may even catch me making the odd piece on my vintage sewing machine.
I offer a hand-picked selection of British garments, traditional grooming products and interesting objects with a few continental classics thrown in for good measure.

Authentic Japanese footwear from Moonstar
The Moonstar Company has been producing shoes in the Kurume district of Kyusyu, Japan since 1873.
Vulcanization is a process this is done in very few factories around the world.
Vulcanized shoes are durable, have a flexible sole and can maintain its shape.
All shoes are hand crafted, from the cutting, stitching and finally onto the firing in a kiln where the hand moulded rubber sole adheres to the canvas.
Introducing HICK.
A collection designed and inspired by the workwear once worn by each of my Grandfathers – one, a factory worker from the Midlands, the other, a shed-dweller from North Yorkshire.
My paternal Grandfather, George, was already retired when I was a boy and I would spend my summers with him and Grandma . We would take trips out in the old van he had converted into a camper, with the most amazing folding plywood roof light. We would eat homemade cakes and drink tea from enamel mugs.
I remember he had two distinct looks; a navy boiler suit with sheepskin gilet over the top, or a grey suit and white button down shirt on a Sunday. After he had showered, shaved and had a bath he would come down for Sunday lunch smelling of fresh crisp cologne with slicked Brylcreamed hair and a sharp moustache.
A simple, effective wardrobe – HICK reflects his ideas and draws directly on these memories.
