Don't Worry, We Can Fix It.

WORTH REPAIRING
#trailcycled: Less waste, longer lifecycle.
We started an apparel business to change how apparel is made. Why change it?

Why change it? Apparel waste is the dirty secret of the garment industry (see quote above). The impact is incredibly high, and that’s why we’re taking a stand against waste.
We do this in part by limiting a lifecycle of waste — by engineering garments for a long happy life; by making more of our products ourselves; and by giving them second and third lives through repair.

IT'S OKAY, IT HAPPENS
Let's face it, accidents happen. But it shouldn't end a relationship with your favorite shirt. That's why we start with garments that are worthy of repair in the first place.
When we repair a garment, we eliminate the need to make another purchase. This also means less raw materials are used and our planet can breathe a little easier.
The Icon Shirt is a great example of a Kitsbow garment designed for a long lifecycle of continuous use, repair, and reuse.
We also strive to make more of our clothing ourselves in the USA, and make only what the customer wants.
We call this made to order. You order it, we stitch it and ship it.
And we offer a generous Lifecycle Guarantee.
Every day, we’re changing the apparel industry by eliminating unsold items and by making them last longer.
