Earlier this week, we brought our network of creators and creatives to schuh HQ to join us for a day of upcycling workshops, which we co-hosted with young footwear artist Annie Purdy. We invited our guests to bring in a pair of pre-loved shoes and waste materials to turn into a new object for the festive season. Annie guided them in creatively repurposing the materials to make either a bag charm, keyring or a festive ornament to take home. We asked that everyone who attended the event to donate an old pair of shoes to our Sell Your Soles donation bin to help raise funds for our sustainability charity partner World Land Trust. Big love to Annie for helping us to inspire our community to think differently about waste. 💚 And thanks to our Huckletree family for hosting us!

By aligning themselves with charitable organizations and causes, sneaker brands are not only raising awareness but also actively contributing to positive change. So next time you lace up your favorite pair of kicks, remember that you're not just making a fashion statement - you're also supporting brands that are making a difference in the world.

3 Places That Will Upcycle Your Old Clothing And Accessories For You by Katelyn Milley 1. H&M - They accept clothing and textiles in any condition. H&M works with I:CO to determine whether the garments can be reworn (sold secondhand), reused (turned into other textiles), or recycled (turned into recycled fibers). To thank you for your clothing donation, you’ll receive a 15% off discount. 2. Madewell - Bring in your old denim to Madewell and receive $20 off a new pair of their quality jeans. Madewell partners with Blue Jeans Go Green to turn your old jeans into insulation for housing communities in need. 3. ThredUp - Make some extra cash by selling your used clothing, shoes, and purses to ThredUp. They’ll sort through your items, decide which to consign, and recycle the rest. - Katelyn Milley www.katelynmilley.com Photo Credit: MinimalismMadeSimple.com

Re-Action is a collective of organisations challenging the status quo with community-based circular solutions for the outdoor industry. PLEB sat down with Gavin Fernie-Jones from the Re-Action Collective to chat about the movement. PLEB: How did the idea for intercepting waste clothing and creating new garments from it come about? Gavin: "In 2019 we held a repair day outside the two ski shops I owned in the ski resorts of Courchevel and Meribel. We set up a couple of tables with sewing machines and invited friends that were seamstresses to offer free clothing repairs. A few weeks before the event we asked friends to donate clothing to a secondhand rail. With the message that we’d sell the kit and use the funds to plant trees. Over the events we raised nearly 9k. The events taught me that my community cared about their impact, that they wanted to get involved, and that we all had a lot of spare outdoor clothing laying around." Want to get invloved? Reach out to Gavin. Read the full story on PLEB Magazine. https://lnkd.in/dBFs-xxS #outdoorindustry #skigear #outdoorclothing #circulareconomy #fashion #sustainablefashion #Repair #sewing

How we celebrate sustainable fashion & give back: highlights from our MTM 'Swap Party'. What's the Deal? We asked our team to bring gently used clothing items they no longer wear and swap it for a fresh find from our selection. It's a win-win: they get a pre-loved treasure, and we keep clothes out of landfills. Everything left over at the end of the Swap Party Week goes to charity. How It Works: 💚 It's a simple one-for-one exchange. Bring one item, take one item. 💚 Donations are key! To participate, you must donate a piece of clothing. 💚 Any unclaimed clothing at the end of the week will be donated to charity. Why Swap? ♻️ 💚 Sustainable Style: Swapping extends the life cycle of clothes, reducing waste. 💚 Free Refresh: Update your wardrobe with unique finds without spending a penny! 💚 Give Back: Support a good cause and donate unwanted clothes to charity. Do you have any great intiatives that you would like to share? Comment below ⬇ #swapweek #swapparty #netzeroinitiative #charityinitiative #achievablenetzero #culture #netzero #mrsnetzeropledge

It’s always a great day when we can talk about SwagCycle and revolutionizing the lifecycle of promotional products. With sustainability being a core value for so many organizations, SwagCycle embodies our commitment to reducing merchandise waste and minimizing our environmental footprint. Traditionally, promo products have been associated with a linear lifecycle, often ending up in landfills during brand update. With SwagCycle, we’re changing the narrative by implementing a circular approach to product management. This great piece from S&S Activewear talks about the purpose behind SwagCycle, cites a Meta case study and talks about how to partner with the organization!
I get your brand noticed by offering unique solutions and providing first class service. Branded Merchandise, Print, Promo and Packing, Revenue Generator, and Inclusive Activist for people with Disabilities
Ben Grossman's commitment to the environment has made it easy to recycle old branded merchandise. Check out this article to learn how to donate or recycle your old branded merch with SwagCycle! ♻️🌍 #sustainability #recycling #environmentallyfriendly Dryvve Link: https://lnkd.in/gAbskF38
