Part of a resolutely urban universe, BDP products will find their place in a workwear or advanced streetwear style. The cuts are often generous and require a minimum of control over your figure, especially when it comes to pants.
Today I have a mixed opinion on its overall quality . If my pants and jackets have proven to be solid products that age very well, the sweatshirts do not seem to benefit from the same attention, probably aimed at a younger audience who are less concerned about the durability of their clothes.
BDP nonetheless remains a brand to recommend for the informed consumer ready to give up “perfect value for money” in favor of a marked ethical impact and a more advanced stylistic orientation than a standard product.
“Bleu de Paname” was born in 2009 on the initiative of Christophe Lépine and Thomas Giorgetti. The basic premise is simple: France is a country with numerous textile know-how whose century-old tradition is in decline. The two friends wanted to give national fabrics a real nobility again through a workwear approach.
Viscerally attached to French know-how , BDP has strived since its creation to produce exclusively in national workshops. Result: more than 35,000 pieces produced in 2014, supporting a significant number of players in the textile sector.
The brand now offers a complete wardrobe: jackets, shirts, knitwear and pants. The products remain accessible, even more so if we consider the implication of “Made in France” which has significant repercussions on the price.
You will need to budget around €100 for a shirt, sweatshirt or pants, and €300 for a jacket.
