Founded in 1979 in New York by Yves Chareton, Hartford's initial idea was to recreate iconic shirts, such as the famous "button down" in madras and oxford, paying tribute to the heritage of tailors and craftsmanship. While respecting tradition, Hartford has managed to modernize its pieces to offer a timeless style, where quality and authenticity take precedence over fleeting trends. Specializing in creating clothing for men and women, the brand stands out for its specific search for colors, unique print tastes, and subtle blending of original materials. Its collections include shirts, pants, sweaters, and other pieces crafted with particular attention to detail to maintain a discreet elegance.
