Logbook SS2018

This has been the most challenging yet rewarding years of my life. Having a start up is an enormous yet exciting endeavor to take on. Everyday you face new problems and adventures, but the reward is priceless.The name ENTREPRENEUR is french for “has ideas, does them”. This is exaclty who I am, what Old Captain is. Having a vision, a project, a dream and without being afraid, working hard at making it happen.

This season we began to produce our own exlusive patterns with some incredibly talented young artists. Old Captain is so young and there is so much room to test, disrupt and discover for our brand and our products.

“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

– Eleanor Roosevelt

Old Captain Co. Spring Summer 2018

Founded in 2016 by entrepreneur, musician, radio DJ and skateboarder Yari Copt, Old Captain Co. is a Lugano based manufacturer of premium Swiss Made dress shirts and apparel for active and creative people.

Music, art, and sport have allowed Yari to wander the world and ultimately inspired him to create a brand that encompasses the influence of these passions.

Old Captain Co. develops their shirts in a small factory in the south of Switzerland where expert hands take care of the production build on the foundation of Swiss Made: highquality, luxury, exclusivity and tradition.

The and and the

clean and classic brand aesthetic, the distinctive details unique style, the quest to source the world’s best fabrics, the craftsmanship used to create high quality products, is foundation and inspiration behind Old Captain Co.

We always make decisions for the long term based on quality and integrity and we are accountable for our impact on the environment, people and communities that orbit around us.

That’s why we only produce what we sell, and everything is made in 1 hour territory from our home base.

Old Captain is a metaphor for taking your life into your own hands, being courageous, discovering, following your instincts, working hard, creating and not being afraid to fail. We want to inspire people to travel, learn and open their mind.

Our upside down anchor is a symbol of freedom - to not be anchored down to this world, to a place or to what your life is supposed to be. If you dare to be courageous, follow your instincts, explore, enjoy the small things, inspire and be inspired, then you will need no ship or no sea, to conquer the world. So go out there, become your own captain, wander the world and if you can, make it a little bit better.

Men’s collars & pockets From timeless cut away to sporty button down and stylish korean. Our range of shirt collars is designed to suit any style and face shape. Shirt pockets are essentially where fashion meets function.

French The French Collar is one of the essentials of modern shirt design.

The balanced shape makes for a versatile collar that match any face shape and can be worn either with or without a tie.

Mini french The Mini French Collar is our bolder alternative to French collar. The shorter cut suits with a range of ties, making it popular for any occasion and face shape.

Button down From casual to well-dressed; the iconic Button Down Collar gets you ready for any style in a second.

Mini button down A particularly casual button down collar with shorter collar points for a lower, more modern profile.

Korean This is a relaxed take on the classic mandarin collar, which features only a collar band without any actual collar points.

Single pocket The single pocket is traditional, functional and definitely make the look less dressy and more casual as well as increasing definition to the shape of your shirt.

Double pocket The two chest pockets with button closure flaps are a really popular look that gives a classic and stylish western feel to the shirt.

Upside Down Another point of view on the classic single pocket.

Let your world flip upside down.

How to care If you take proper care of your new favourite shirt, then it can last many years, even if nothing lasts for ever. Read our good advice to extend the lifespan of your shirts. This information covers cotton shirts. Other quality fabrics may require other treatments.

Before washing

Ironing

Undo all buttons, empty any pockets and remove the collar bones. Turn the shirt inside out. Read the shirt’s washing instruction label.

1. Place the collar flat. Iron the collar’s underside (the reverse side), from the collar edge to the middle, while also stretching the top seam.

REMEMBER TO REMOVE THE OLD CAPTAIN PIN!

2. Iron the upper side (the face side) in the same way.

3. Iron the shoulder yoke; the inside first and then the outside.

After washing

4. Iron the cuffs; the inside first and then the outside.

It is preferable to let the shirt drip dry, without spin drying. Gently stretch the shirt’s seams and place on a hanger.

5. Iron the arms in the same way.

6. Place the shirt flat with the front pieces together. Iron the side seams first, then the front pieces.

7. Turn the shirt inside out and iron the back of the shirt.

Storage Hang or fold the shirt after washing and ironing. It is best to store the shirt on a hanger with the collar button done up. If the shirt is to be stored folded, then do up all the buttons.
