We believe disposable stuff will just be a glitch in the long arc of consumerism. We're powering the new wave. We are “LE NEW CONSUMER”.

Put more bluntly, sales allow brands to sell clothes they shouldn’t have made to people who don’t actually want them

• Repair, maintenance, and restoration are about building more intimate, meaningful relationships with the things around us

• Repairs store and tell stories. They are the equivalent of scars on objects.

• Repaired objects help us redefine beauty.

• Repair replaces wastefulness and shallowness with meaning and care.

• Repairing makes us truly empowered and responsible owners of our objects as opposed to mere consumers.

We have the rare opportunity as consumers to do something powerful with our money. We can cast aside impulse and boredom to buy things with intention. We can reward the crazy people who still care about how and where something is made. We can buy something with real value. When we do this we get rewarded twice. We buy something made with passion, determination, decades of knowledge and by doing so we support our community. We also get something of true quality that will last.
