MOVING FORWARD SINCE 1928

Eton Company Information

Fashion changes. Style endures.

Eton once set out to perfect the sharp dress shirt. In the process we pioneered the wrinkle-free cotton shirt and revolutionized the industry. Today, we continue to build on our legacy and commitment to menswear, championing craftsmanship and style for all of life’s occasions. Our design philosophy revolves around expressing individuality and inspiring confidence through taste. We are firm believers in the principle that while fashion is fleeting, style is enduring.

The founder of Eton, Annie Pettersson

A Story of Dedication and Audacity

Our founder Annie Pettersson had a motto: “Never hand over a shirt until you are completely satisfied with it.” In the midst of the great depression, Eton became a successful company by focusing on perfecting the shirt. The dedication to quality – and the daring decision to dream big in challenging times – continues to drive Eton today. Nearly a century’s worth of craftsmanship and commitment to quality and style is a heritage you can touch and feel in every product. At Eton we have the audacity to believe that our dreams can become reality, and we possess the confidence to take on challenges and opportunities to make them do so.

Design Language

Eton creates Swedish design with an Italian twist: combining our Nordic approach to style and craftsmanship, optimized through technology, with a Milanese sense of flair to create men’s luxury shirts, accessories, and lifestyle garments. Our collections range from sharp dress shirts for formal occasions to casual shirts, t-shirts and overshirts in luxuriously refined materials. All accompanied by men’s accessories, made in collaboration with the finest craftsmen in Europe.

It is All in the Details

Quality is all about control, in every detail. Apart from the R&D studio at the Eton headquarters in Gånghester, we do not own any factories — but our philosophy is to assure that our high standards are met as if we did. Our team is involved in every step of the process: from how the fabric is stored and handled, to how it is assembled with the accuracy of 1/3 of a millimeter.

Responsibility Through Heritage

As a global brand within the textile industry, we at Eton understand the impact our operations have on the climate, economies, and the communities along the value chain. Each piece produced represents resources used, and the fashion industry as a whole has an impact on the environment. The impact is not limited to our operations and supply chain, but can be felt globally through climate change. Our ambition is to build on our strengths to redefine luxury consumption as responsible consumption and garment-ownership. We currently design and collaborate with our suppliers to create high-end products with long-lasting quality, subsequently reducing our impact on the climate.
