Cassian Zobel

The man who gave our handhood the finishing touches: Cassian Zobel (21) is Germany's best young custom tailor. To this end, he was officially chosen by the Central Association of German Crafts last autumn. The man from Bielefeld says: "The hand hood just seems so logical to me. Sensible and extravagant. Developing the prototype for it was a lot of fun. A start-up right after the training. Feels really good."

Also, Cassian and his girlfriend are Aylin the models in the Handhood commercial.

What was the design challenge? Cassian: "First: the thumb. It has now got its curve in the design and has space. Second: We absolutely wanted the handhood to be washable at 60 degrees. I was able to remove make-up from all applications with rubber. All the better. Now it is beautifully simple and elegant."

And the best? "I love two things: the robust, beautiful seams, which our colleagues from the production in Portugal are so enthusiastic about. And the loud tab to activate it. We call them Fluppe internally. Which is actually nonsense. But has become so natural in the team."

Cassian is already dreaming of the next HANDHOOD-Variants: "Then there will not be just new colors."
