To get here, we started with garments at the end of their lives and worked our way backwards. By this, we mean we started with our own worn-out clothes and our direct experience of witnessing textile waste in landfills around the world. While we knew that these mountains of wasted garments could be repurposed or recycled, we wondered if they could instead be simply renewed and restored.


With 30+ years of experience in the fashion, textile, and material science industries, we understood and shared the frustration of losing your favorite garments to time. To solve this, we did what we knew best: we studied the yarns, inspected the garment failures, crunched the numbers, and analyzed the data to develop a solution that we call BIORESTORE.
