Founder

Story

Founded in 2024 by Parker Zinn, a Parsons graduate (BFA, Fashion Design), the brand began with pieces made-to-order, offering a limited capsule of hand-knit garments crafted by New York City artisans. It's where an insistence on hand-intensive techniques and the carrying forward of tradition was knit into the brand's DNA, a through-line that has never loosened its grip.

Today, styles are fully fashioned with trusted partners in New York City and Peru, using Italian and Peruvian yarns sourced with intention. At the heart is a persistent curiosity about the possibility of knitwear: treating heritage techniques as a living design language rather than a reference point, and discovering what emerges when craft comes first. Design at Parker Zinn is deeply collaborative: yarn, gauge, tension, knit structure, and small details in constant conversation until they find harmony. No decision is resolved on paper alone; each piece evolves through making.

Heirloom intent without the fuss. We believe the most sustainable garment is one you never want to part with — constructed to last, timeless enough to keep reaching for, and special enough to eventually pass on.

Our point of view blends elevated Southern sensibility with New York polish: tactile, precise, quietly witty. Expect lace-leaning textures, dimensional cabling, and clean proportions that echo across each capsule so pieces whisper to one another across your wardrobe.
