Dovetail Workwear

Dovetail Workwear started with three women-two with muddy knees and one knee-deep in textiles. Co-founders Kate Day and Kyle Marie Begley owned a residential design/build landscaping firm in Portland, Ore. called Moxie and Moss Gardening. Digging in the wet, Pacific Northwest soil was uncomfortable, their everyday jeans weren't up to the task and w... orkwear marketed to women was ill-fitting or in stereotypical colors and styles. When they met client and apparel industry expert Sara DeLuca, the three took things into their own hands, designing and producing the Maven pant to address these shortcomings. In 2018, Dovetail Workwear donated $3,000 to Oregon Tradeswomen to establish The Maven Scholarship Fund to promote women's access to trades occupations. The company also frequently makes in-kind donations to organizations such as Girls Build, SkillsUSA, and the Bonneville Environmental Foundation.Read More
