Bike Knickery

Bike Knickery graphicA couple questions for you and an offer:

  • Do you have a pair of pants you don’t wear much?
  • Would they have a second life if they were 3/4 length?
  • For a $20 donation* to the hard-working and worthy Bicycle Alliance, we will “knicker-ize” a pair.

*Cash only please

Here’s the scoop:

  • Tuesday, Oct 23rd, 4pm to 7pm at the shop
  • For the first 25 people
  • One pair of trousers per person
  • We pin them to your specifications
  • Hemmed knickers will be ready in 8-10 days

Go from this…

to this…

with a 1/2 to 1″ turned hem like this.

Bring a friend, join us for a beer or dram of wine.

About Juliette

Juliette is a co-founder of Hub and Bespoke. Juliette has worked in product development for twenty years; initially in sportswear apparel design and then home textile products. Born of a French mother Juliette was taught early the importance of a beautiful presentation for all that was mundane. It must be pleasing to the eye as well as suitable. It is this sensibility that informs her approach to design: elegant solutions for everyday needs. She believes that design must reach beyond form and gather in purpose to guide the product development process; always asking “for what good?” With Hub and Bespoke Juliette hopes to: (a) curate a collection of elegant solutions and products that entices others to overcome perceived or real barriers to getting on their bikes, and (b) simplify the decision to take to two wheels.

    Thanks Ryan! Also, I mistakenly had $25 in the graphic when this was first posted, but the donation amount is $20. Sorry for the confusion!
