History

Founded in 1953 by the Despature brothers in Roubaix, France, Damart gained prominence through the invention of Thermolactyl, a synthetic fiber designed for heat retention. Historically, the brand transitioned from a mail-order specialist to a global retailer. It holds significance in fashion history for pioneering wearable thermal technology. While primarily associated with an aging population, its archival influence persists through periodic collaborations with contemporary designers seeking to merge technical heritage with modern silhouettes.
