Overview

ReFleece is a re-design and re-manufacturing company, founded to inspire re-use of materials by both consumers and companies. We partner with clothing companies to reclaim waste textiles, such as damaged or returned clothes or landfill-bound scraps -- and transform them into modern, structured accessories using a proprietary technology. Sustainably sourced and design-forward, ReFleece is a win-win solution to the problem of textile waste.
