With this initial thought Jonas Skommevik and Thomas Flinn co-founded DePalma Workwear in 2016. They noticed a new generation of craftsmen, ranging from carpenters to restaurant workers and mechanics, ready to leave old ways and stereotypes behind. It was time to breathe fresh air into a conservative market. 

With decades of experience creating and developing international fashion and streetstyle brands from Sweden, the idea of bringing a bit of lifestyle into workwear sounded just about right. From their head office in Stockholm the DePalma team of professionals design, sell and market workwear for a new generation of craftsmen.
