About Us
We sometimes like to jokingly say that Volvo built the Swedish people’s cars, IKEA furnished their homes, and Wiges dressed the people by filling their drawers with socks and underwear. All in good-hearted jest, of course, although there is also an element of truth to it.
WE HAVE BEEN DRESSING ORDINARY
PEOPLE SINCE THE 1950s
From our beginnings in the 1950s as Wigelius Manufakturaffär, a store on Magasinsgatan in Gothenburg, we have spent almost 70 years on a rewarding textile journey. As a result, we can now be found in almost every sock and underwear drawer in our elongated land. From Abbekås to Abisko
We don’t overcomplicate things. We provide garments that people want. Clothes that are comfortable, look good and last. It’s that simple. Today, we sell our Wiges brand to stores and retail chains in Sweden and throughout Scandinavia. We have around 800 products in stock for immediate delivery; everything from underwear and socks to beanies, mittens and base layers for the whole family..
“We provide garments that people want. Clothes that are comfortable, look good and last. It’s that simple.”
We also help other companies and brands to create their own strong brands and collections. We are a partner that is there throughout the entire journey, from the initial sketches and ideas that we develop together with you as our customer, all the way to the shelves in the store. In between, we assist in navigating aspects such as sourcing, production, sustainability issues, packaging design, logistics and reliable deliveries. A complete solution where our extensive experience does not cost a penny extra.
Everything is based in our old factory in the heart of the Swedish textile industry in Kinna, where we have gathered all our knowledge, history and products under one roof. It is from here that we ensure that ordinary people can enjoy a better, more comfortable everyday life in clothes that last.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like to know more, or if you want to create tomorrow’s most stylish and comfortable garments together with us. Our story has only just begun!
