Who Are We?
What if workwear could be as much about style and passion, as function?
With this initial thought Jonas Skommevik and Thomas Flinn co-founded
DePalma Workwear in 2016. They noticed a new generation of craftsmen,
ranging from carpenters to restaurant workers and mechanics, ready to
leave old ways and stereotypes behind. It was time to breathe fresh air
into a conservative market.
With decades of experience creating and developing international fashion
and streetstyle brands from Sweden, the idea of bringing a bit of lifestyle
into workwear sounded just about right. From their head office in
Stockholm the DePalma team of professionals design, sell and market
workwear for a new generation of craftsmen.
The initial thought has an answer; DePalma is remodelling the workwear
industry.
This is a unique opportunity for a person with an entrepreneurial mindset
as it gives the chance to be an integral part in forming the development
of DePalma Workwear - now and for the future!
