Founder Story Two of Dovetail Workwear's founders (Kate and Kyle Marie) followed their gardening passion and launched Moxie and Moss Landscape Design. Digging in the wet, Pacific NW soil was uncomfortable, their everyday jeans weren't up to the task, and workwear marketed to women was either ill-fitting and tailored for men's bodies or offered stereotypical colors and patterns. Enter their client (Sara) who happened to be an apparel industry expert. The three decided to take things into their own hands, designing and producing Dovetail's Maven Slim workpant to fill the fit, function and durability gap in women's workwear.
Since the first offering of Maven Slim, Dovetail Workwear has expanded into full top-to-toe seasonal collections. We are known for pioneering pocket systems, hardcore but luscious fabrics, and beautifully cut, inclusively sized workwear. Our apparel is extensively field tested on professional women from tradeswomen and farmers to artists and firefighters. We are so proud to partner with the women and organizations in trades, physical, and outdoor occupations leading the women's workwear movement.
