There is a freedom in wearing something made by hand. Something that fades with you, travels with you, becomes yours over time.

A History From the Heart.

A History From the Heart.

Olivier and Beatrice have been collecting vintage American workwear since the 1980s. After relocating to LA, they founded Dr. Collectors in 2010 with one obsession: take the pieces they loved and make them better. Today the brand lives on through their son Teddy’s vision, and the hands of everyone who carries it forward.
This isn’t a brand. It’s a practice.
