It is an interesting subject that has developed into a trend these past months. I am fan of vintage clothing and textiles because the quality is better than most clothes on the market, especially military clothing. Vintage military clothing is in a quality that is not made anymore, the textiles are amazing.

I dont know the market in US, but in Europe you can find some cool shops that have specialized in vintage military gear.

What are some of those shops in Europe?

You have guys that sell on markets and smaller shops. Information about these places is often something you got to hear from locals with knowledge.

It exists some cool shops that send to other countries. Broadway and sons is one in Sweden that I have good experiences with. Brut is one that seems cool, but i dont have bought anything from them.

using wine to tie dye

the concept behind the clothing is to push the idea of being sustainable/finding sustainable solutions but not sure if the product itself is actually sustainable considering it’s all made of plastic materials (but tbh I dunno much about sustainability so maybe I’m wrong)

what makes it sustainable is that they're recycling and re purposing old plastic instead of producing new plastic. also this looks really f***ing dope

jacket is fire regardless and this the homies homie so not a diss. this kids promos vids are always on point

Edit: nvm you right it says all the plastic materials were recycled on the actual website description.

highsnob articles usually have good pics but goddamn what is this lmao

not starting another clothing brand prolly the most sustainable thing you can do in fashion tbh

Nudie Jeans are also sourced sustainably by using 100% organic cotton, being produced under fair conditions and with their promise to repair every pair for free for lifetime. Also a great example imo

I recently started my brand with an indirect focus on sustainability. I’ve been aware if this issue since I read a four pins article like 8 years ago and its always been in the back of my head. Tbh I started sewing by using unwanted clothing to make things and fast forward like 4 years and Im actually doing cut and sew work with the same objective.I honestly don't do it cause its the trend now I do it cause its how I started and I plan on running my brand with this mindset till the wheels fall off.

sustainability is just a word fashion brands put on their website but don't really care about

Bethany Williams, not always wearable day to day, but has a great approach to business practice. Thiis quote is important:

I feel like the word sustainable is really complicated because it >describes lots of different practices, lots of different ways of working. Specifically, what I do is work with different social groups and then also work with recycled, upcycled, and organic materials.

Sustainability is already becoming a buzzword for a lot of brands to tack on to low effort initiatives that actually change little about their approach.
