Tewün Debuts Fall 2026 Collection at The Surf Lodge
Argentine polo players Nacho Figueras and Andrés "Ruso" Sorzana have unveiled Tewün's Fall 2026 collection at The Surf Lodge in the Hamptons. The line draws on Patagonian ranch life, old-world craftsmanship, and their polo careers. Sorzana, who grew up in Patagonia as the youngest of three brothers from a pioneering family dating to the 1880s, began designing utilitarian clothing for ranch work and polo, later expanding to womenswear at his wife Clarita's request. The couple runs an estancia in San Martín de los Andes. During the pandemic, Sorzana partnered with Argentine tech investor Wences Casares to focus on Tewün. He travels to polo hubs like The Hamptons and Aspen to present the pieces. Craftsmanship is central: Sorzana initially made each piece by hand, and his mother hand-delivers Merino wool to artisans; a single poncho takes three months to make. Sorzana rejects scaling via mass production, saying "then there is no Patagonia." Figueras, the Buenos Aires-born polo star and Ralph Lauren ambassador, joined Tewün in 2025 as co-founder and investor. The brand's storytelling includes belt buckles with wild boars, wrapping paper with a Patagonia map from the year Sorzana's ancestors arrived, and hardcover books with panoramic photos screen-printed on silk linings. Sorzana cites the adage "Patagonia hugs your heart."
