Since 1972

Shirting crafted to live beyond trends.

BACOTÉ is a lineage of craftsmanship — fine fabrics, precise cuts, and quiet details for people who care about how a shirt feels, not just how it looks.

Artisanal drape

Classic White — reimagined.

Long-staple cotton, a soft roll at the collar, and a drape that doesn’t collapse after a long day.

Minimal, recyclable packaging — built for gifting without waste.

Lookbook

A quiet collection of textures, fits, and real-world drape.

Our story

Founded in 1972 by a craftsman who refused shortcuts, BACOTÉ is a quiet heritage label built on skill, not noise. Each shirt is a conversation between fabric, pattern, and the person wearing it.

1972

Humble beginnings

A single table, one iron, and a promise: no shirt leaves the atelier unless it feels right.

1998

Refinement

Gradual expansion, stricter weave and shrinkage standards, and a regular clientele who refused to wear anything else.

2025

Reborn

BACOTÉ returns as a curated luxury label — honouring heritage while designing for a slower, better wardrobe.

Craftsmanship

We test every seam and weave. Long-stitch construction. Shrinkage-tested fabrics. Hands at every critical moment.

Long-stitch seams

Durability that survives repeated washes and years of wear.

Premium weaves

Fine yarns sourced from mills with traceable provenance.

Conscious packaging

Minimal, recyclable materials — designed for presentation and low waste.

The BACOTÉ standard
