Open the Door

Current obsession: sustainable fashion design

Worn Again designs and manufacturers footwear from old coffee bags, car seats and reclaimed jeans - giving them a second chance and a new lease of life.

Gypsy and Loic menswear with original details that set them apart. About 50% of the line is organic cotton, hemp and bamboo, and their dyes are non synthetic and environmentally safe.

Finisterre is a Cornwall based company that specialises in technical apparel for surfers. Their commitment to ethical business practices and the environment is uncompromising. Finisterre's design director, Tom Podkolinski, will be speaking about his experiences as a textiles designer at our annual conference in March.
