How should I care for my item?

On the care label of your item you will find instructions on
garment care. We always recommend washing your items
inside out to preserve color fastness. Each textile and
finished garment goes through multiple stages of durability
testing. The results of these tests inform our manufacturing
techniques and textiles to ensure we provide your items with
the longevity you would expect. 

Should you have any specific questions on product care or
product repair please always reach out to us at
hello@knickerbocker.nyc so we can make sure you are in
good hands when it comes to caring for your item.

How should I measure my bottoms?

Before measuring, always make sure to lay the garment flat
and ensure there is no bunching of fabric anywhere so the
measurements taken may be as accurate as possible.

  • Waist: Measure the back of the waistband along the
    opening edge and double the measurement.
  • Inseam: Measure the length from where the legs meet at
    the crotch to the hem along the inside seam.
  • Opening: Measure the opening of the hem and double
    the measurement.
How should I measure my tops?

Before measuring, always make sure to lay the garment flat

    and double the measurement.
  • CB Sleeve Length: Measure from the center back neck
    seam, where the collar meets the body, along the
