Although their boats may look different—and they may be headed to different ports—my favorite thing is watching women go out into the world. And the world is better for it.

This is the reason I started Field Trip. I want engaged, curious, passionate women out in the world. Making their mark. Feeling comfortable, confident, beautiful, and at ease with themselves. 

I do not want them held back by their clothing.

I do not want them spending one more minute indecisively in their closets. Or taking days to pack for a trip. Nor do I want them settling for clothing that "looks the part" but is uncomfortable or doesn't reflect their unique personalities. I don't want them changing outfits multiple times a day (who has time for that?). I do not want them falling back on a uniform of athleisure wear because it is "easy", then turning down opportunities because they are too embarrassed to run into someone they know. 

A couple of years ago, this was me. 

So I set out to make it easier for women to be well-dressed...without sacrificing quality, style, comfort, and ease of care. So they can get dressed quickly, stay dressed all day, and look like put-together grown-ups in the process. Clothing that goes further...so women can go farther.

Here's to spending less time getting dressed and more time making your mark in the world.

- Dominique Paye, founder

We’ve invested time and thoughtfulness into the sourcing of our fabrics, the development of our silhouettes, and the craftsmanship of our production to ensure that each design is beautiful, comfortable, functional, easy to care for, and made to last. 

We also believe that respect for people and planet are pivotal to the process.

We choose fabrics that are beautiful, but also feel great, are easy to care for, are versatile, and last.

Quality

Our fabrics are made by some of the most renowned mills in Europe, whose multi-decades of experience and dedication to doing things the right way result in superior textiles. 

All of our mills are part of the Better Cotton Initiative. 

Feel great

All of our fabrics are natural, breathable, soft, shape retentive, color-fast, and free of harmful chemicals like formaldehyde or ammonia.

And they are never see through.

Easy care

Our fabrics are machine- and hand- washable and quick drying (most will air dry in under 1.5 hours). This reduces the energy needed to launder, eliminates the financial and environmental impacts of dry cleaning, and means that you can wash and quickly dry your clothes almost anywhere.

Versatile

We’ve started with classic hues that are suitable for year-round wear and work with what’s already in your closet. 

We pay attention to five points of fit so that each silhouette will comfortably take you from dawn to dusk and pair with everything from shorts to suiting. Making it easier for you to get — and stay — well-dressed no matter what your day holds.

OUR FIVE POINTS OF FIT

Sleeve Length

We design sleeves to flatter and allow for comfortable movement and minimal fuss. We believe in seeing your watch, bending your arms, and avoiding sleeves in your dishwater...without having to roll (and re-roll) cuffs all day.

Arm Opening

Cut for air flow, but structured enough to fit under a blazer or sweater. And never any pinching in the armpits.

Back Width

Whether we use a bias cut to add stretch without adding volume, a rounder cut to keep fabric away from the body, or a fabric with natural stretch, our goal is to have you reaching all day with ease.

Hip Width

We utilize side vents, curved front hemlines and curved side seams to provide movement in the hips (and avoid the “faux roll” in the stomach area) while remaining tailored.

Body Length

Graduated front-to-back lengths keep things structured in front and longer in back so you can reach up and bend down with coverage while still remaining tailored. 

Our emphasis is on craftsmanship and respect.

We partner with pattern makers experienced in both haute couture and high-end ready-to-wear lines to ensure the details are both luxurious and hardworking. We partner with factories and mills who are committed to the preservation, practice, and building of their crafts.

We also believe in paying artisans their worth. Each of our shirts is patterned, cut, and sewn in a small living-wage factory in North Carolina. You can find out more about our amazing factory here.

We produce our shirts in small runs. This is a mutually-beneficial arrangement—our order sizes respect the factory's production capacity and ensure we do not produce more than we can sell. 

This makes our product more expensive, but it is how we feel right about doing business.

Production during COVID-19

We picked up our first batch of shirts on March 16th, the day the factory was suspending in-house operations and pivoting to produce medical gear from sewers' homes. While the factory is still able to send us small runs of shirts, from our end we have not cut production during COVID-19 and we have paid all of our bills to the mills and our factory on time and in full.  We appreciate your patience as we work to increase our inventory. If there is a specific style/color/size you would like that is not in stock, please use the "email when available" link to let us know and we will make sure to include that in our next factory order.

Processing time

Orders placed before noon will ship the same business day. Orders placed after noon will ship the following business day.

Delivery time

Delivery times depend on where your order is being mailed. Typically, you will receive your shirt(s) within 2-7 business days. Once your package has shipped, we will send a tracking number to the email address with which you placed your order.

Carriers

We typically ship via USPS. If you prefer another carrier, please let us know in the notes section at checkout or email us at hello@fieldtripbrand.com after checkout and refer to your name and order number. You will still receive $5 flat-rate shipping.

Overseas

We currently do not ship overseas.
