What Champ de Manoeuvres is known for
Toulouse workwear label founded 2015 by Ahmed Taoufiki and Armand Teboul, reworking 1940s-60s military and workwear silhouettes into selvedge jeans and work jackets, largely made in France from vintage army stock and traceable fabrics.
Champ de Manoeuvres was founded in 2015 in Toulouse by Ahmed Taoufiki and Armand Teboul, two founders who came from the garment trade itself. Their focus from the start was vintage workwear and military clothing: 1940s work garments, 1950s uniforms, 1960s fatigues, reinterpreted rather than simply reproduced. Champ de Manoeuvres has built its catalogue around Japanese and selvedge denim jeans, moleskin and wool work jackets, utility pants, chambray and seersucker shirts, and outerwear like parkas, pea coats and bomber jackets, much of it produced in France. A notable part of the brand's sourcing involves buying up old military stock and remaking it into new pieces.
