PEOPLE
We believe the artisanal skillset of making clothing is an art to be honoured & protected, enabling the clothes we wear the opportunity to support communities of makers. Fashion has the ability to treat people terribly and exploit our natural resources, but it also has the ability to restore ecosystems, promote biodiversity & give communities access to financial stability, education, health & safety. We sit with excitement daily for the opportunities to connect with more businesses doing good, to bring forwards beautiful clothing that creates positive impact on the hands which stitched it & the Earth which grew them.
REGENERATION
The concept of regeneration is still finding its way into universal understanding, closely tied to circularity and vital for the healing of our Earth. In our supply chain, we make it a priority to collaborate with materials and companies that actively engage in practices aimed towards regenerating the Earth, its soil, and ecosystems. Our focus lays within promoting biodiversity and carbon sequestration through our supply chain. Fashion holds a power to instigate positive change for our environment, and we're here to shine a spotlight on that potential.
CIRCULARITY
Our values are simple but deeply rooted—we aim to reflect nature for a healthier planet. The fashion industry's annual waste of 92 million tons is a serious climate emergency, and we're passionate about addressing this & making a change. Our collections represent a commitment to circular supply chains, where every component is carefully considered to ensure it returns harmlessly back to the Earth. Our hope is to inspire other companies to adopt similar practices, contributing to the well-being of our planet in this contemporary world.
EDUCATION
At the core of our mission lies a commitment to consumer education as we recognise the pivotal role that individuals play as catalysts for change. Our goal is to cultivate a spirit of inquiry within our community, inviting you to explore our relationship with earth & fashion's impact with a string of hope setting the foundation for a newly inspired industry.
COMMUNITY
Hope stands as the antidote to our collective fears, and the power of community is the catalyst for significant change. Walking Protest beckons everyone—whether you're a climate enthusiast, someone unfamiliar with environmental issues, an advocate for change, or indifferent. Our mission is to create a safe space for all, where questions find voice, theories are challenged, and the seeds of inspired change can take root in the vibrant and lively Walking Protest World.
