PRODUCTION
from field to fibre, from heritage to wardrobe
THE FIELDS

100% PURE SOUTH-INDIAN COTTON
Grown in fields that have sustainably cultivated cotton SINCE 35 AD, as recorded in Roman trade documents. No monocultures, no forced displacement, no greenwashing, just long-practiced craft.

THE WEAVERS

WOVEN NEAR THE ORIGIN POINT OF THE PAIJAMA
We recreate the ORIGINAL weaves worn by adventurer Eugène Le Moult, adapted to our contemporary patterns.
Our weaving partners are the descendants of the ORIGINAL weavers, English-speaking, unionized, and working in an area where political power has alternated between soft-Left and hard-Left coalitions since 1957...

CUT, SEWN AND FINISHED IN BOMBAY.
We’ve partnered with the same family-run atelier since 1974, an easy-to-inspect 18 minutes North of the international airport.
THE GARMENT

P.Le Moult clothes are biodegradable¹, regionally made, and historically grounded.
We stay true to the designs of dad’s granddad, reduce transport by keeping production within one region and invest in living heritage
¹ We use 100% cotton and mother-of-pearl buttons. The only modern concession: durable nylon thread for the seams. Because we like things to last.
