                About Makr

                Makr Design

                Design

                Designs begin as a simple drawing in a sketchbook and are then modeled in CAD, where they are patterned with the highest level of precision. Each and every detail is carefully considered, down to the exact number of stitches. Once the initial pattern is complete, the first prototype is created by hand, just a few feet from the CAD workstation. The prototyping process is known to take several months, with each revision being more structurally and aesthetically sound than the last. Finally, samples are created from several material options and only then is the design either rejected or approved for production.

                Production

                Most MAKR designs would not be possible if MAKR did not control each and every aspect of production. Patterns are often laser-cut in-house and most small goods are still hand-sewn in the MAKR Design Studio. All other goods are made locally, which allows for the strictest manufacturing oversight. Oftentimes, complicated patterns require that MAKR develop a new manufacturing process which is frequently imparted to craftsmen by MAKR Founder and Design Director Jason Gregory. Once complete, each piece is inspected by the MAKR team before being packaged and shipped directly from the studio.

                Materials

                MAKR is known for using some of the best materials available, most of which are sourced from the US. MAKR has a special relationship with many of its suppliers, particularly Horween in Chicago. Horween has been instrumental in developing unique and exclusive leathers for MAKR, most notably the Scraped Cordovan – an unrivaled material which results in distinctively beautiful pieces. Woods are sourced locally, from fallen trees whenever possible. MAKR is committed to the perpetual pursuit of the most radiant and durable materials available anywhere.
