FN Double-Layered Self-Insulated Handwoven Kepenek
Trousers · Pin · Leg Warmers
 
This set transforms the idea of protection into an aesthetic reflex.
Decoration is not our concern; it is designed for meaning.
 
The FN kepenek carries Anatolia’s direct relationship with climate into the present day.
 
Woven on our handlooms in a double-layered structure, with sections where the layers are joined, its self-insulated construction requires no additional lining.
 
It retains warmth, embraces the body without confining it, and remains breathable.
 
The natural irregularity of handweaving is not a flaw — it is the defining quality.
 
The form references the traditional kepenek without repeating it folklorically.
The volume falling from the shoulders proposes a stance that strengthens the body without imposing masculinity.
It creates an instinctive sense of protection.
 
The trousers are kept simple and fluid to balance the volume of the upper structure.
There is no struggle with the body; whether walking, standing, or waiting, they speak the same language.
 
The leg warmers form the functional backbone of the set.
They embrace the leg, stabilise the lower silhouette, and complete the logic of layered dressing.
Their impact is subtle yet decisive, preventing cold from entering through the hems.
 
The pin is the most personal point of the structure.
The garment remains silent; it carries the wearer’s voice.
It is not fixed — it moves, its meaning shifts.
A symbol, or a signature.
 
This set exists
to protect from the cold,
and to redefine the relationship between body and environment.
 
At FN, tradition is a beginning shaped by references.
And some garments are not merely worn.
