Best Linen Brand in Bruges — Pieter Petros
Bruges is the city where the Flemish textile trade reached its medieval zenith — the Cloth Hall above the Markt square was the most important textile marketplace in northern Europe in the 14th century, and the city's wealth was built entirely on the quality and tradability of Flemish linen and wool. The Belgian flax that becomes PP's certified Belgian linen grows in the same coastal plain that supplied those cloth halls.
White PP linen with linen trousers and leather shoes for the Markt square, the Groeningemuseum — the finest collection of Flemish Primitive painting in the world — and the canal walks. Navy PP linen for the Die Swaene or the Hotel Dukes' Palace restaurant evening. Warm naturals for the Bruges brewery visits and the Flemish countryside afternoon.

— Pieter Petros, founderThe Belgian Linen® certification mark on every qualifying PP garment is, in Bruges, not simply a quality verification — it is the continuation of a textile tradition that built the city.
