C H A N G E C O M E S I N WAV E S For every product purchased, we remove one pound of trash from our world’s oceans and waterways. The “one pound” business is a tricky thing to visualize—a pound can mean 50 plastic bottles, or it can mean one-twentieth of a car tire. To us, it’s all the same. We team up with local municipalities and recyclers to fill our trash bags and rid the waterways of garbage that would otherwise end up polluting our seas for centuries. Behind the scenes, our customers and volunteers are the ones making this happen. Our cleanups are funded entirely by the purchases you make, and as we expand our scope to higher-yield cleanups, we’re more and more grateful for a community that makes intentional shopping a priority.
2,068,927 pounds of trash and counting

MADE WITH SALVAGED BISON FIBER
The American bison’s coat is a layer of hollow, compactable, and resilient hairs that allow them to keep warm and dry in extremely harsh climates. When we realized the untapped potential of bison fiber, which was largely considered a waste product, we developed an entire supply chain around salvaging it for our award-winning outerwear and accessories.

DON’T WASTE THE HOLIDAYS In the US, we throw away 25% more trash during the Thanksgiving to New Year’s holiday period, including about 38,000 miles of ribbon, $11 billion worth of packing material, and 15 million used Christmas trees. Let’s be part of the solution, not the problem.
1 . W RA P S MART E R Look for paper that can be recycled: newspaper, magazines, the comic pages, or even compostable wrapping paper.
2. SAV E PACK I NG M AT E RI ALS Packing peanuts, air bags, styrofoam. Save it for future mailings or find a place to drop them off nearby.
3. E X P ERI E NCES OVE R GO O DS You can’t go wrong with concert tickets, guitar lessons, lift tickets, a kayak rental, a baking class, a sports game.
