Reuse. Before you reduce. Before you recycle.

What is sustainable clothing?

Atrevete's products are entirely crafted out of excess fabric donated by local businesses and individuals; fabric that would otherwise be thrown away or discarded. We repurpose it and bring it back into the cycle of life.

We believe that slow, sustainable fashion begins with re-using the abundance of fabric waste that exists today. Upcycling is our only way of catching up. The United States, alone, generates an average of 25 billion pounds of textiles per year, and while roughly 15% of it gets donated or recycled, the remaining 85% goes to the landfill, year after year.

While there is a wide spectrum of 'sustainable' clothing in this day and age; we believe that the most (if not, only) sustainable products are the ones that do not require new materials being fabricated.

Handmade work fosters extra love, craftsmanship and time. It isn't easy to compete with mass-producing factories, the child-labor practices abroad, and the clothing that is consequently "cheap." We can't foresee trends in color or style, as we can't foresee what fabrics we're going to receive. We're aiming to create clothing that is timeless and trend-less; clothing that escapes the rhythm of wastefulness that fast-fashion has fabricated. None of our products can be mass produced, and none of our pieces can be replicated — every pair is one of one.

Slow fashion allows us to relate to our clothing; to intentionally choose what speaks our character and vibrancy, and to minimize our closet to a handful of items that we will tend to carefully over their life-spam. Slow fashion fosters a relationship between the consumer and the craft-maker that has long been lost; we will be here to keep repairing your Atrevete clothing as you live in it. We don't want to create more easily-replaceable items in this world. We create items that you'll only find once, and take care of overtime.
