WE LOVE SHOPPING JUST LIKE YOU!
Strolling through the city center with friends on a Friday afternoon or
simply still looking online for bargains on sale on a Sunday evening. Oh yeah!
Apparel, books, electronics: we have been consuming them linearly for over a 100 years. That means: We live and consume in abundance, produce huge amounts of garbage and forget what consequences this has for us and our environment!
We only use most of what we have for a certain period of time. We don’t like the summer dress from last year anymore,
the new shoes somehow pinch or it’s just time for a new handbag.
Even if you regularly undertake the clear out of your wardrobe (or wardrobes, I’m definitely not the one to judge),
according to a study, 64% of clothes hang completely unworn in our wardrobe.
Too often we forget, that in the fast fashion industry, valuable resources were used in the production of these items.
Workers and seamstresses along the entire global production chain are commonly paid under the living wage and often work under precarious conditions.
But no fear! There is no way we want to make you feel guilty. Our goal is to stimulate thought and to create awareness of the effects that the over production of clothing and all items in general has on our environment and all our fellow human beings.
ECO-Sustainability & Shopping go hand in hand. YES, this works!
By shopping secondhand, you are an important part of the circular economy!
Thanks to the circular economy, it is possible to consciously extend products life cycle. In this way, we act in a more environmentally friendly way, as the use of valuable raw materials such as water, dangerous chemicals or the use of mineral resources are reduced. If you have a piece of clothing, you wear twice as long, the negative environmental impact is reduced by about half! As soon as we use products longer, we also generate less waste. Challenging ourselves and our community to be even more sustainable.
With every order you make, you are helping to protect our environment.
Together we are redefining the future for sustainable consumption! ♻️
