Company mission
To offer artisan clothing for people who care about quality.
Our take
Bombinate was founded as the first curated marketplace dedicated to high quality independent craftsmanship. Its platform gives access to unique pieces at the right price, becoming a home for the luxury furniture, menswear and lifestyle brands of the future.
Since conception, Bombinate has grown to become a fully-fledged community of craftsmen, entrepreneurs, and brand founders. Its four criteria are: quality (is it made to last?), craft (how is it made?), story (who made it?), and ethics (why was it made?).
As well as being high-quality, Bombinate only sells items made in workshops, not sweatshops, to support skilled artisans. It aims to help men who really care about quality and ethics, rather than the hype of traditional luxury brands.
This approach has led Bombinate to be represented by over 300 lifestyle brands, furthering its goal of creating a vibrant community to discover the highest-quality brands. It's also backed by many of Europe's biggest luxury and tech operators, including Uber, Mr Porter, Revolute, and Made, aiming to expand across Europe in the near future.

The projects I've worked on so far at Bombinate have pushed me outside my professional comfort zone, constantly questioning how we can achieve results in the smartest, most efficient way. What I love about working at Bombinate is there are no barriers to my learning potential and no limits on how I want to grow personally and professionally.

Challenging work
Sep 2021
When I started at Bombinate, I received a really hands-on onboarding experience where I was thrown into the deep end across a variety of projects, tools, and teams. I loved soaking in everything I could about the business and personally, I think this is the best way to learn. Because of the flat hierarchy structure at Bombinate, your opinion always matters even when you're at the very beginning of your learning journey.

My teammates at Bombinate are smart, interesting, and hugely capable. I love the amount of diversity in the team and everyone at Bombinate is dedicated to the company and driving our results. Working with a remote team has taught me new levels of communication which is something I believe our company culture has mastered.
