"Every new garment we make is an entirely new journey. With you, it’s different. You know exactly what you want, and so do we. This allows us to craft trousers that are constantly improving." Mert.

Established in 1987, Total has been a trusted partner for years, evolving from humble beginnings into a powerhouse of trouser craftsmanship. With a close-knit team of 70 specialists, their legacy is built on passion and dedication. Mert, who took the reins from his father Sami, reflects on the evolution: "Every new garment we make is an entirely new journey. With you, it’s different. You know exactly what you want, and so do we. This allows us to craft trousers that are constantly improving." From the early days of critical changes in materials and setup to today’s refined patterns and sewing techniques, Total remains a cornerstone in our trouser making.
