The story of how a cardboard shirt became comfortable.
"From the beginning, the goal was to make workwear as beautiful and desirable as casual wear."
Founders Anu and Taina.
Our story began in 2007, when we, the founders Anu and Taina, met. We were united by a strong belief in the power of Finnish clothing design. We wondered why that was not reflected at all in the workwear of the time. So we rolled up our sleeves and set out to develop the world's best workwear. Medanta was born in 2008.
A revolutionary way to dress professionals.
