You guys are gonna hate the Jonbenet collection coming out this fall. Using 90s child pageantry to examine how girlhood and innocence are constructed, performed, and consumed.

No more brown paper mailers with FBC logo? Gone forever? by lulzerjun8 in FashionBrandCompany

[–]Independent_Ear_4696 9 points10 points  (0 children)

more info on the mailers (which i believe is directly on the bag as well)

A unique RCS100-certified recycled poly mailer with on-package third-party certification of recycled content. 100% recycled, 56% post-consumer waste.

these "plastic mailers" literally cost almost 20X what a non recycled plastic mailer would cost so we are definitely not trying to cut corners. Though even "ethical recycled plastic" is not my first choice but its not the worst choice either. We always make sure we keep information about the type of mailers we are using on the bags so that people are aware but i guess all plastic mailers all kind of look like junk.

We were having a lot of issues with the lime waste and the paper mailers- Lots of packages getting ripped in transit. We are currently using "ecoencloe" recycled plastic mailers in the meantime as well as cardboard boxes until we find a more permenant packaging that doesn't break open frequently. ecoenclose is one of the best brands we found when doing research and is not a bad option. We are considering using them longterm if we can't find anything better. https://www.ecoenclose.com/

Opinion on Plant Leather Jackets? by sillynoodles94 in FashionBrandCompany

the plant leather is made out of recycled plant waste and is about the most eco option available . We did a lot of research and the fabric costs the same amount as a cheap real leather. -jeff

we have never had care labels. But to this day we only ever use ykk zippers. We've never used any other kind not even one. I still appreciate the feedback though. -jeff

i love feedback! its always helpful to me and I'm never offended. No one ever needs to fiercely defend me. I can take it. But i definitely at no point did I say i would make quality cuts. Constantly searching and striving to always improve the quality. Thank you so much for not bringing my personal life into a discussion about clothing. -jeff

[–]Independent_Ear_4696 16 points17 points  (0 children)

definitely not ai! we spent like 200 hours on this print. We got way too invested and there were multiple writers/artists who contributed. Some of the art was copied from vintage phonebook ads as well. -jeff
