It's Tailored, It's Better (Hockerty Collab)

I'm wearing:

2. Denim shorts, from Pull & Bear.
3. White espadrilles, from Zara.
4. Black leather bracelet, from H&M.
Have you ever had a tailored shirt? A tailored anything? It's pretty great. Back in the day, our granddads used to take most of their clothing to the tailor, you know? That guy who made everything fit perfectly. A big reason of the high-pricing on designer pieces has to do with the fitting. Usually, fitted clothing is way more expensive than regular mall clothes.

That's where cool brands like Hockerty appear. Hockerty is this cool company that allows you to create a customized shirt, jacket, pants or polos, any colour or fabric you wish; then, you enter your measurements, add some finishing touches (like a contrast collar or your fancy initials) and, voilá! You get a customized piece that's tailored just for you.

I received this shirt right on time for my birthday and was, honestly, surprised in the best way possible. It fits like a glove, it's awesome. The part I customized was the collar, I think the red and white contrast looks pretty cool and I also added some buttons to it to secure that the collar always looks good. You should definitely check out Hockerty and get yourself a customized fitted piece. You won't regret it.

// ¿Alguna vez han tenido una camisa a la medida? ¿Cualquier cosa a la medida? Es bien padre. Allá en el día, nuestros abuelos solían solían llevar muchas de sus cosas al sastre. ¿Saben? Ese señor que hace que todo entalle perfectamente. Una de las grandes razones del precio elevado en las piezas de diseñador tiene que ver con el entallado. Usualmente, la ropa entallada es más caro que la ropa normal de centro comercial.

Ahí es donde marcas buena onda como Hockerty aparecen. Hockerty es esta compañía que permite crear una camisa, saco, chamarra, pantalones o polos personalizados, cualquier color o tela deseada; después, meten sus medidas, añaden los toques finales (como cuello contrastante o sus iniciales fancy) y ¡voilá! Ya tienen una pieza personalizada sólo para ustedes.

Recibí esta camisa justo a tiempo para mi cumpleaños y fue, honestamente, una buena sorpresa. Me queda súper bien. La parte que personalicé fue el cuello, creo que el contraste rojo/blanco tiene buenas cualidades visuales, también le añadí botones para asegurar que el cuello siempre se vea bien. En serio, deberían checar Hockerty y conseguirse una pieza personalizada y entallada. No se arrepentirán.
Love always, 
Hen.
