Why it belongs in ORBIS
Hast is a menswear brand offering formal and casual shirts alongside tailoring and more relaxed everyday clothing. Established in 2012, it describes a wardrobe built from natural or recycled materials, with production divided among specialist workshops. Its shirts are made in Lithuania, while other garments come from different locations rather than one shared manufacturing origin.
Hast's collection places formal and casual shirts alongside a broader wardrobe that extends from trousers to knitwear and outerwear. The brand dates its beginnings to 2012 and describes using natural or recycled materials across its clothing. Its craftsmanship page identifies workshops by product type, making manufacturing origin more specific than the brand's Paris identity.
Shirts are made by a Lithuanian workshop specialising in woven fabrics, while a Portuguese partner produces chinos and jeans. Other Portuguese workshops handle knitwear or jersey garments, including polo shirts and T-shirts. Ties come from an Italian workshop, and formal belts are made by hand in Spain. These are separate production relationships rather than a claim that everything is made in France.
Work jackets provide another distinction: their manufacturer is a French family business with a workshop in Tunisia. Shoppers comparing pieces can therefore use the product category to understand which workshop account applies. The collection spans tailored clothing and less formal styles, so a shirt purchase need not mean choosing a complete suit. Hast's boutique directory provides the relevant shop locations separately from this account of how its clothes are made.
