I’ve defected from the corporate sustainability world to pour all my energy into a platform that showcases independent footwear businesses making the most sustainable kicks around the world. It's called Cobbled Goods.
It is an experiment of sorts to see if we can model the rise of craft brewing in other areas of the economy. We want to displace big business marketshare with high quality indie brands that each have their own unique flavours from recyclable 3D printed clogs, to traditional west African craft revitalizing sneakers, and modular running shoes. The goal is to leave behind the old systems of mass production and disposability by demonstrating new ways of doing things that respect makers and nature.
What makes us different than your average sustainable fashion platform is that we put business design before product design because it gets to the heart of, who has power to make sustainability aligned decisions, and how wealth is distributed.
Before I launch this September, I'd love any and all feedback... no matter how, brutal, small, or crazy :) It will help me make it as useful as possible, and I'd rather hear it from reddit before it goes out to a wider audience. If you enjoy the platform, have any ideas for how to improve it, or find a usability issue, I want to hear from you. Please PM me or comment below anytime
