TSPTR is an acronym for Truth, Symmetry, Pleasure, Taste, and Recognition, the five design principles of Louis Sullivan, American modernist architect, designer, and ‘the father of skyscrapers’. Each of their garments channels the history of American counterculture and subcultures, exploring politics, music, protest, pop culture, and war. Ethically made in Portugal and Japan, using mills and factories where tradition, expertise, and human dignity take precedence over the bottom line, TSPTR maintains a passion for producing high-quality, classically designed clothing with meaning.
