the AMV Factory Tour
In 2025, American Vintage is celebrating its 20th birthday -
and opening the doors of its factories for the occasion. We're take you behind the scenes to Portugal, Bulgaria, Morocco and Tunisia to see how your favourite clothes are made.
Through meetings and visits, we are weaving the story of our products, focusing on materials, expertise and moments in life. A story of fabrics, partnerships and friendships on a journey around the Mediterranean.
Portugal
Cotton every which way - from jersey to fleeceWelcome to Portugal : Manuel, Olinda, Liliana and Pedro invite us into their factories and offices.
Here, it's all 100% cotton – t-shirts in jersey, sweatshirts and jogging pants in fleece.

Bulgaria
It’s all about the knits - from knitting to finishingWe’re off to Bulgaria.
We meet Grégoire and Manuel in the factory where our knitwear is made.
The yarn arrives in balls first, then the fabric is knitted.
Jumpers and cardigans are made, ironed, brushed and finished.
The result : soft knits with a perfect feel in natural, bright and marl colours - AMV's DNA.

Tunisia
Denim expertise and the quest for the perfect jeansNext stop : Tunisia.
It's time to talk denim – Salaheddine, Wafa and Éric tell us about their techniques.
Innovation happens here at the cutting-edge of technology.
The cotton fabric is stretched, cut, assembled, dyed, washed, faded and stabilise, in a circuit that uses recycled water.
AMV's speciality is stone washing, a process that uses resin stones.
The objective ? The perfect pair of jeans
