the company that has become what alabama chanin is today began early in 2000 with the creation of hand-sewn garments made from cotton jersey t-shirts by founder and slow design pioneer natalie “alabama” chanin.

21 years later, alabama chanin is a leader in elevated craft due to a strong belief in tradition and dedication to locally sewn garments and goods—both hand and machine-sewn. their production maintains responsible, ethical, and sustainable practices holding themselves to the highest standards for quality.
