What you receive

A one-of-a-kind redesign, created in collaboration with you.
Your pre-loved garment is carefully reimagined through Recouture’s design language — where Norwegian textile heritage meets contemporary form and circular thinking.

Norwegian Åkle from the Recouture studio.
Each piece is finished with a carefully selected woven tapestry, placed on the back in Recouture’s signature folded A-shape. No two åkler are alike — making every redesign truly unique.

A renewed garment with history and future.
The result is a slow fashion piece that carries both the story of its past life and a new expression designed to last.

Return of your one-of-a-kind piece.
Your redesigned garment is returned to you as a finished, wearable artwork — crafted to be worn, used, and loved.

The signature anorak
We truly adore our signature anorak — its A-shaped silhouette, soft folds, and ability to breathe new life into pre-loved jackets.

To learn more about the process, philosophy, and craftsmanship, we invite you to explore the Redesign section.

  • This Redesign option is suitable for anoraks and jackets. (For jackets you will not get the flap pocket in front) If you prefer it without the fold on the back, the item will be more unisex and lighter.

    We use Norwegian åkler and woven carpets in our redesign. They come in different weights, conditions, and techniques. We will suggest the perfect åkle for your jacket, and you can choose from our stock when we’re starting the process. Please understand that this process is time-consuming, and we might not always have the perfect one in stock for you. However, we will search for it, and it will be just around the corner. This might affect the timeline for the return of your item.

    We will apply the Åkle below the back piece on the back, and to the side seam. The jacket can have added length on the back if that's preferable. If your jacket is an anorak with front flap, we will add the åkle to this.

    Please be aware that if you have fastenings or other details where we replace with the åkle, it's difficult to keep it. The åkle is made of wool, so the jacket will still be warm, but it loses its windproof function on the back.

    At the moment, we don't have the technical capability online to provide a wide range of design options. Working on various jackets, especially those with lining and padding, has proven to be time-consuming. Consequently, we currently lack the capacity to undertake such redesigns. If you have a specific item you're eager to redesign, please send us an email.

  • Step 1: Find a Pre-Loved Product.

    Search through your wardrobe for a pre-loved item that you believe would align well with our creative concept. For inspiration, explore our Portfolio Redesign section to get ideas on how to approach your redesign request.

    Step 2: Choose a Redesign.

    Upon placing your order, you'll receive an automated email. Reply to this email with any redesign preferences you might have. If you have inquiries before finalizing your order, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at hei@recouture.no.

    Step 3: Prepare and Send Your Item.

    Carefully wrap the selected clothing item and send it to us. You will cover the cost of shipping it to us, and we will handle the return shipping back to you.

    2743 Harestua
    Phone: +4795709292

    Step 4: Redesign Process.

    Once we receive your item, Re-couture-Hilde will work her magic. We will send you redesign suggestions through SMS or email, depending on your preference, both before and during the redesign process. This ensures that your vision is understood and effectively realized. Your unique idea will be brought to life, transforming the pre-loved piece into a one-of-a-kind garment.

    Step 5: Return of Your Redesigned Item.

    In march, we will send your redesigned item back to you. The timeline may vary depending on factors such as the progress of the redesign, finding the perfect Åkle for the redesign, and the volume of orders in the queue. We hope this slow fashion item is worth the wait.

  • It's important to note that the charm of these redesigned garments lies in their individuality. As such, minor faults, variations, and seams that might differ from your expectations can naturally occur. These imperfections are the hallmark of a handmade process, showcasing the dedication and craftsmanship poured into each creation.

    If you have received a garment that does not meet your expectations, you have the right to return it to us. In the event of any faults with the garment, we are committed to remaking it at no additional cost to you.

    Our commitment to sustainability and eco-conscious fashion drives us to provide these one-of-a-kind garments, repurposing materials and reducing waste in the process. We believe that these unique characteristics add character to your wardrobe, telling a story of both innovation and environmental responsibility. We hope this makes it worth it.

  • Before you proceed further with this process, please be aware that redesigned garments require extra care. Take this into consideration before making a purchase.

    Hand Wash: To keep your cherished upcycled garment looking its best, we recommend hand washing in cold water with a gentle wool wash. This approach honors the intricate fabric and its journey through time.

    Machine Wash: You can use your machine if it has a hand wash program with cold water and no spin.

    Low Spin Speed: After hand/machine washing you may select a delicate cycle with a low spin speed (400) on your washing machine.

    Hang Dry: After washing, let your garment air dry, laying/hanging on top of your drying rack. This will ensure that it dries naturally and maintains its original form.

    Store with Love: When not in use, store your garment with love in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.

    Fresh Air: Additionally, letting your garment hang outdoors in fresh air once in a while can breathe new life into it.
