Vastrm was founded upon 100 years and 3 generations of garment and textile legacy. The first family run cotton mills were started in 1915 at the end of Imperial China in the city of Shanghai. The first mill was launched with 14,000 spindles and 250 looms and a dozen workers. By 1932, the mills employed a workforce of 38,000 workers producing close to one third of all cotton production in China. Production continued to grow substantially over the years, surviving Japanese occupation and civil war. However, after the founding of the Peoples Republic of China in 1949, all business operations were nationalized and the family dispersed into 8 different countries around the world looking to start new lives. Some family members ended up in Hong Kong, where they built new factories and continued the lives they knew in textiles. Significant investment was made into new equipment and technologies to increase production capacity as well as innovations in fabric quality and supply chain efficiencies. Current production has reached over 60 million pieces a year, representing some of the world's most respected luxury brands.

Jonathan founded Vastrm to continue in this tradition here in San Francisco, designing luxury sportswear for the busy professional. Using sophisticated processes to manage just-in-time manufacturing, Vastrm is a leader in delivering custom, made to order sportswear for both individuals and retailers across the country. We select only the best fabrics in each class, producing some of the highest quality garments in the most fashionable styles. All of our garments are constructed to fit perfectly. We understand that not every fit is equal and not every body type is created the same, so we have devised a model where we can produce garments that fit each unique body type perfectly, guaranteed.
