Hiut Denim Co.

Grand Master - Tracy

Experience making jeans - 36 years

What has making jeans taught you?
"It’s not just working on your own, it’s working as a team… there’s no ‘I’ in team."


What is your idea of a beautiful everyday life?
"Family first, friends, health and happiness.
Going home to my husband at the end of the day."


Where do you go when you need to clear your head? Why there?
"To the pub to get drunk!
Not really, I’ll go to my own space for a while, wait until I feel better."


What is something you are still learning?
"Patience - it’s something I need to be better at."


Finish this sentence: “I make jeans because…”
"That is what I have done since the age of 17 - more or less. Working at Hiut is more than making jeans, as we get to sign our work, I (we) take a lot more care into producing that garment. It’s work I (we) can be proud of."
