Pendleton Portland Collection


Pendleton's Portland Collection has arrived.

For those of you not familiar, Pendleton Woolen Mills is a true American heritage brand,founded in 1909 in Pendleton Oregon and still family owned today.

This exclusive capsule collection was created by the Portland based design team of Nathaniel Crissman, Rachel Turk and John Blasioli.
In a recent ELLE magazine, The Portland Collection designers described a visit to the Pendleton Woolen Mills archives:
   
  Escorted through rigid security that included a fingerprint-activated lock and a steel cage door, the trio were ushered into a room filled with hundred-year-old garments that had been frozen and thawed to preserve against moths. “It was a treasure trove of old fabrics, designs and advertisements,” Turk, 30, recalls.  “We just had our minds blown and got all inspired,” says Crissman, also 30, “and went straight to the sketchbook.”
