"Buying green, eco-friendly, organic, or sustainable products are great first steps in reducing our impact on the planet," says Hamlin. "However, we are introducing the idea of creating even lower impact products by not making anything new and creating our clothing from materials that already exist."
The Team In their experience in the athletic and outdoor industry working for brands like Nike, adidas and Royal Robbins, founding partners Gary Peck, Scott Hamlin and Jim Stutts have witnessed first-hand how much excess is created during the product creation and manufacturing process. They also realized that excess will continue without limits unless there is a dramatic change in how products are made.
Hamlin says, "Gary, Jim and I felt a responsibility to re-purpose these materials. This is our opportunity to not only stop creating excess waste, but to inspire people to think about how they consume and motivate the industry to change by reducing excess.
