Care Instructions
Machine wash in cold wash cycle and lay flat to dry. Denim will soften with time, becoming even more comfortable with each wear.
These vests begin their journey in the Global North—as once-loved jeans, skirts, and shorts—before making their way to India, where their second life begins. Each piece is carefully cleaned, sorted, and transformed by our team of skilled tailors at Neelam Traders in Uttar Pradesh, in creative collaboration with our partners at Kraftloom.
Though this piece doesn’t yet carry a traditional artform, it’s deeply rooted in hands-on craftsmanship. From selecting and reclaiming fabric scraps to building patchworked panels and stitching each vest with care, this process honors material and maker alike. Our vision is to collaborate with artisans to bring embroidery, applique, or other textile artforms into future editions—merging utility with tradition, and circularity with craft.

| Water Saved | ~3,000 liters preserved | Equal to 15,000 glasses of drinking water—avoiding the massive footprint of new denim. |
| Artisan Hours Supported | 5–6 hours of fair-paid work | Creates dignified livelihoods and supports skill-based employment. |
| One-of-a-Kind Design | Every vest is unique | Patchworked by hand—no two vests are ever the same. |
| Rescued with Intention | Assembled with care by skilled hands | Because even what’s discarded deserves to be seen, valued, and loved again. |
