1911 - TODAY.
It started with a single garment. A 90-year-old Henley unearthed at a Berlin flea market in 2011.
Fashion designers Gitta and Peter Plotnicki instantly recognised the Henley's quality as unique and markedly rare. In fact, the impeccably preserved piece was an authentic workers shirt from 1911.
FOUNDED IN 1911
Founded in 1911 by Balthasar Mylinegoods, the brand began in Germany's Swabian Albs, once a thriving hub of textile production. There, Mylinegoods manufactured loopwheeled workers' shirts and undergarments — simple, durable pieces made with skill, patience, and purpose.
THE ORIGINAL FIND
A century later, a 90-year-old Henley was unearthed by Gitta and Peter Plotnicki at a Berlin flea market. An echo of Balthasar Mylinegoods's bygone brand — and its meticulous manufacturing techniques — the rare Henley piqued the pair's curiosity, leading them to the Swabian Alps and a long-retired factory floor of century-old loopwheelers. The idea to revive both the machines and the brand was born.
Mylinegoods's THE ORIGINALS collection followed soon after, celebrating authentic workers' clothing from the 1920s, '30s, and '40s, refined for modern times.
MADE IN GERMANY
CRAFTED IN PORTUGAL
In 2016, Mylinegoods formed a trusted partnership with a family-run manufacturer in Portugal. Holding fast to the standards and values of THE ORIGINALS, the Portuguese-made range flexes the brand's creativity in new directions — inviting modern colors, new organic and recycled materials, and contemporary styles.
THE FUTURE
Quality isn't just about how material feels against your skin. It's about the process that each piece undergoes to arrive in your hands. It's about fair and uplifting conditions for every worker in our orbit. It's about practices that minimize environmental impact at every opportunity.
Underpinning everything we do is a heartfelt commitment to good, original design, sustainability, and ethical production, which results in reliable, everyday pieces.
