Indigeous Designs is chic with eco friendliness and fair trade

Indigenous Designs Fashion
Indigenous Designs is an eco friendly online shop that is stylish and contemporary. Unlike other indigenous clothing makers who are not!

Most of their fashions are made of organic cotton, alpaca, silk, merino wool, and tencel. They work with environmentally-friendly dyes too. Garments are typically made using one of three carefully selected methods: hand-knit with needles, hand-held knitting looms and hand-woven looms.

Each garment is hand-knit entirely by an individual as part of a small knitting group in their community, not in a factory. They also support and preserve fair trade wages and artisan cooperatives.

Indigenous also utilizes green energy to offset their carbon footprint, offers employee carpools and employee incentives to buy hybrid vehicles, and formed Green Steps-a program to offset the carbon footprint of trade shows.

They are made in countries such as Peru and Guatemala. Indigenous is more than just an organic clothing company!!

The entrepreneur from Australia wanted a way to put all those discarded inner tubes to good use and did he find a way! Each belt is unique as they come from different inner tube manufacturers. They are hand crafted too. The only problem I see is that they are $45!

Cute heels made of recycled skateboards

high heel made recycled skateboard
High Heel next to skateboard
Cute high heel made of recycled skateboards. Great for the summer fun outfit at the beach. These were designed by a university student who noticed the end shape of the skateboard resembled the incline angle of a high heel….

Over 100,000 skateboards are produced a month and most of these are eventually worn out and so this is a nice idea for the reuse of a material…
