3,300,000+ lbs of cardboard saved.

Our boxes are incredibly sturdy. They ship directly to our customers without needing to be put in a stronger box, which has saved over 3 million lbs. of cardboard to date—enough to cover an entire football field!

Machine washable & long lasting.

Fast fashion is an enormous burden on the planet. We believe in only making products that are durable enough to last for years—and are machine washable, so they’re like new over and over again. And the proof’s in our durability testing: Our super-strong bag handles can hold over 100 pounds!
