Basic Rights was launched in 2016, by guitarist Freddie Cowan of The Vaccines, to provide the ideal uniform for modern creatives. The premise was, and remains, beautifully simple- iconic menswear, inspired by utilitarian workwear and classic men’s tailoring, to create what we call a ‘uniform for creators’, a uniform as stylistically durable as the material used. Because every one of us has a creative mark to make on the world, and Basic Rights makes the clothes for you to make yours in.
