Partners | Matt
Matthew Oliver Wilson was a product designer before turning his attention toward apparel and fashion. Witnessing first-hand the unethical manufacture of products designed and developed specifically for obsolescence, he quickly recognised the inherent dangers of this attitude towards consumerism. A move to Berlin, Germany in 2009 allowed him to explore different career opportunities in the creative industries.
A happy chance occurred when he discovered Raw Denim. Fascinated by the narrative contained in each garment, this newfound passion led him into a journey of discovery through the fashion and clothing industry. The qualities he found in a great pair of jeans he soon found in other goods and services.
In 2012, Matt became involved in Denimhunters, a blog that was the go-to site for all things quality in denim. Fuelled by his passion he quickly rose to Assistant Editor and Chief and then a full partner with Thomas Bojer. Denimhunters grew to become a fully fledged online magazine and a resource for both consumers and industry professionals alike.
In 2015, the Selvedge Run concept was introduced to the Berlin fashion scene. Uniquely, perhaps, this was a trade show for brands with a philosophy that aligned perfectly with his principles of craft and quality. Matt was heavily involved with the show from the outset and it was here that he first had the opportunity to work with his future Rope Dye partner, Daniel Werner.
The work with Selvedge Run and Denimhunters complemented each other, but the industry was changing. In 2017, Denimhunters was at a crossroads. There was a need to expand and rethink the basic concept and turn the focus outward, away from only denim. Rope Dye was born. An online men’s lifestyle magazine about the passion for well-crafted menswear as well as other cherished products that baulk against today’s throw-away culture.
He left the Selvedge Run at this time to concentrate fully on Rope Dye and now, after two years, it is time for the next step. Rope Dye begins a new chapter. These are exciting times.
Partners | Marc
Marc Fincham looks after many of the commercial and strategic operations and the technical firepower behind Ropedye. Allied to this, he is an accomplished full-stack marketeer and brand strategist bringing a wealth of on- and offline experience in Fashion, Technology, B2B, Travel, Luxury Goods, Media, and FMCG markets.
Having trained and made his mark in traditional advertising agencies, Saatchi & Saatchi and Leagas Delaney London, he moved in to agency management in Scottish firms and soon in to the ecommerce and online space, developing a new breed of digital planning where customer insights, qualitative research and Big Data meet with single-minded creative messaging, the ability to code and sheer accountability.
Having met Matt through Denimhunters via some work for Hilton Resorts (it’s a long story), and then Daniel through the Selvedge Run, the three of them now partner in delivering the 360° service that is Rope Dye. Marc is very much focussed on challenging and refining our strategic offer, and oversees our digital output.
All the while, he is unapologetically passionate about bringing fundamentally great brands to the widest possible audience and is equally unapologetic about driving their ROI.
OUR BUSINESS
[/mk_fancy_title]
Although our principal base is Berlin, our business is registered and domiciled in Tallinn, the capital city of the Republic of Estonia.
This is for good reason. All our corporate operations – financial, taxation, accountancy – can be conducted securely online in what is considered to be the most transparent regulatory environment in the E.U.
The Estonian legal system has also been reformed and shaped in to one which is now modern, simple and easy to navigate.
Therefore, we conduct all our back-office functions in Tallinn and the English language.
This pro-business environment all adds up to an easier life for everyone and means that we can all concentrate on doing what we do best.
