Spring 2015!
Our Story!
The idea for Purnell started when our co-founder Brent
Dehlsen, leading a successful wind energy company, was
unsatisfied with the everyday gear available to outfit the
techs who spent their days hundreds of feet off the
ground in crazy weather conditions. He visualized
something they could wear both on and off the job but
also wanted some specific design tweaks – like
rearranged pockets and seams that would fit better
under their safety harnesses. !
!
Years later that vision became real when he joined forces
with sister-in-law and retail veteran Brita Womack, and
built Purnell’s first designs from scratch. Together they
searched for new ideas, rethought common clothing
assumptions, and were rewarded with an incredible
response to their first designs. Even though those first
styles were officially workwear, they were clearly just as
appealing for people heading out on the trail or in to
town. They knew they’d hit a nerve, so they applied
their design approach to creating a fresh collection of
revisited classics for men and women. !

2 About Purnell!
We Design With a Purpose!
Before we ever take a step toward a new design, we pour a couple cups of strong coffee and hone in on
the goal we’re trying to achieve. We look at it from different angles, we try to define it in different ways,
and we don’t put the pen to paper until we really understand where we’re trying to go. At Purnell, we
call this “purposeful design.” Our clothes are clean and simple, subtle and iconic. We’ve made our home
in classic silhouettes with a unique blend of attributes:!
!
•  We gravitate toward traditional patterns and colorways because they’re welcome anywhere in the
world, anytime of day. !
•  Our fit is uniquely athletic and engaged, dedicated to flexibility and comfort, yet anchored in the
visual tradition of American workwear. !
•  We are relentlessly restrained when it comes to extra features, keeping the things you truly need
and eliminating everything else.!
Men’s!
Inspired by Discovery,!
Designed for Makers!
At Purnell, we anchor our design in
classics. Our approach to clothing is
devoted to discovering ideas, rooted in
meaningful minimalism and dedicated
to design with a purpose. !
!
Our clothes are made for makers...
people like us who like to work with
their hands and think on their feet.
Makers are builders, designers and
creators who move forward and think
laterally. They spend their time
figuring things out, exploring the
world of new ideas, and enjoying the
feeling of what it’s like to create
something themselves.!

Maker Story!
Municipal Winemakers, one of the locations for
our catalog shoot, is a frequented stop along the
Santa Barbara Urban Wine Trail, and the
brainchild of this “Maker Story” craftsman,
Dave Potter. When he’s not pouring his rustic
varietals in the Muni tasting room or signing
members up for his wine club, “Club
Awesome”, Dave’s other day job is Director of
Winemaking Operations for the region’s
famous Fess Parker Wines. !
!
Dave is passionate about winemaking and
aspires to craft wines of the highest quality, that
are widely appreciated, and commercially
successful. Says Dave: “There’s a way to be
serious about craft, and a way to be diligent
about quality, and take what you do seriously,
and make the best product you can.”!

We love collecting ideas!
And we often find some good ones long
before we have a place to use them.
Sometimes you get an immediate “ahha!” moment, and other times you get a
great idea that can be stashed away for
the right moment down the road.!

Purnell co-founder Brent Dehlsen's grandmother,
Francis Purnell, studied art at prestigious University
of California Berkeley in the 1920s. Born and raised in
Guadalajara Mexico, she went on to marry a Danish
engineer, who among other things, was instrumental
in expanding the Southern Pacific Railroad through
Central Mexico.!
!
We celebrate her sense of adventure and artistic
exploration in our "Francis Art Tees” showcasing a
few of her original art school illustration studies she
crafted nearly 100 years ago.!

Engineering Change!
At Purnell, we’re passionate about supporting organizations that engineer
change. That’s why we’re working with Engineers Without Borders USA to
help fund community-driven small-scale infrastructure projects around the
world. !
WATER SUPPLY!
ENERGY!
Huatta, Peru!
EWB-USA University of California Berkeley
Chapter!
!
In Huatta, Peru, the community's sole access to
water is contaminated groundwater from a
shallow well. EWB-USA is partnering with the
community to build alternative, clean water
sources. To-date, four new water supply
systems have been built at the local primary
school and health clinic. Moving forward,
EWB-USA will continue to work with the
community so that each household is
empowered to build, use and maintain their
own small-scale water filtration system. !
Mattru Jong, Sierra Leone!
EWB-USA Lehigh Valley Professional
Chapter!
!
At a secondary school in Mattru Jong, Sierra
Leone, the impact of electricity on the
community is literally night and day. Ten
years ago, a civil war destroyed the energy
infrastructure at the school. EWB-USA
partnered with the community to install
locally sourced solar panels. These efforts
brought light to dark classrooms, which
allowed the school to reopen its doors to 1,500
students.!
STRUCTURES!
La Conquista, Nicaragua!
EWB-USA Colorado School of Mines
Chapter!
!
In La Conquista, Nicaragua, Engineers
Without Borders USA is building a
suspended footbridge that will connect eight
communities to the nearby city of Jenotepe.
During the rainy season the river that
divides the community and the nearby city
becomes flooded and impassable. When the
bridge is complete, it will provide the
communities with year-round access to
businesses, markets, clinics and schools.!
