Honduras native, Carlos Campos, grew up in a design household and was inspired by his father who was a master tailor. In 2007, he launched his Carlos Campos New York brand – a modern take on classic American style with a Latin twist.
Our first commercial product is a classic black t-shirt, made from 100% Nucycl r-lyocell, in partnership with designer Carlos Campos.
Impressed by the soft and strong characteristics of the Nucycl r-lyocell fiber, Carlos developed and introduced “The Softest T”, which represented the first commercially-available garment made from Nucycl renewable fibers. This limited-edition garment was available to buy online and sold out in the first day.
As a designer, everything starts with the fabric. The touch and feel are the most essential parts of my garments. Nucycl is soft and beautiful; it feels like the future.
