TREASURE HUNTING

We seek to source from brands who share a common vision of sustainability, accountability and transparency.

Our selection is based on three core principles:
1. Long-lasting, desirable products.
2. Social responsibility
3. Minimum environmental impact
 
Alongside their global commitment to sustainability, our brands also have their own issues they’re passionate about.

To help you navigate, we created a grid with 8 defining values:

Fighting post-consumer waste via Recycling and Upcycling. Pretty badass.
Produced using kind, low impact and natural fibers such as linen, hemp, tencel, being 100% biodegradable.
High-quality pieces, expertly crafted by super talented hands.
Brands supporting social and environmental non-profits.
We make sure the people who made your clothes are paid living wages and work in a fair factory.
Keep animals safe.
Made-to-order, minimal waste pattern making, actively reducing effluents and/or recycling water and electricity.
You love hanging out at your local shops? They do too. Product made where the business is based.

CARBON NO MORE

The only footprint we like is ours, in the sand of a desert island.
So, we decided to team up with UPS Carbon Neutral, to reduce the impact of shipping on the environment.

REPACK

Our re-usable packaging is cool, clean and well-travelled.
Made of durable and recycled material, it reduces CO2 emissions by up to 80% and there is no waste.
Just drop your RePack envelope in a mailbox (free of charge, anywhere in the world), it will be checked, cleaned and off on new adventures.
Oh, and you also get a reward. 

NO PACK x RePack

Less is more. We’ve gone one step further with our No Packaging option. 
It’s simple - You’ll receive your item wrapped in a RePack envelope in our pretty white recycled & signature red biodegradable paper, that’s all.

Ps: Our stickers are biodegradable too.
