ABOUT
  • LISA & JENNY
    had cush careers in fashion and architecture, but they were shook by how much waste their jobs produced in those industries.  They had to quit and find a better way to make things.  Lisa & Jenny founded Rewilder in 2014 with a mission to make “zero waste originals”—#betterbags, that is, with a micro-footprint that breaks from the normal fashion lifecycle.
    Instead of buying new material, they take 100% salvaged, high-performance materials from other industries, like the auto or alcohol industries. They then wash, cut, and sew everything in California—yay—so they’re not using up fossil fuels and transportation dollars shipping shit around.
    Lisa & Jenny glo up these amazing salvaged materials with their modern design aesthetic.  Their bags have modern classic silhouettes so you’ll want to keep them forever.  They don’t make trash; they make treasure.
  • ABOUT REWILDER 
    Lisa & Jenny founded Rewilder in 2014 after strong careers in fashion and architecture, respectively.  They witnessed industries obsessed with selling you new new new and more more more, and were sickened by how much waste was produced in the process.  They started Rewilder to reinvent fashion with zero waste originals.  Rewilder creates the best bags on & for the planet from 100% salvaged materials.  Everything is washed, cut, and sewn in California for bags with a micro-footprint and highest quality.  They don’t make trash; they treasure it.  
  • OUR MISSION                                                                                                        Rewilder doubles down on mission: zero waste.  The rest of the fashion is thirsty for new new new & more more more, and 85% of that ends up in landfills.  Instead of making fashion that turns into trash, we take 100% salvaged, high-performance materials from other industries and redesign them into the best bags on & for the planet.  Two birds, one stone, and a new standard of #betterbags.                                                                                                                                                            WE BELIEVE IN SALVAGE MATERIALS, LOCALLY MADE, ZERO WASTE, GOOD DESIGN, ETHICAL PRODUCTION, & HIGH QUALITY.
