OUR MISSION.
Our fucked up species has a serious addiction to plastic. An addiction that the governments and key business players seem indifferent in addressing.
Today upwards of 25 percent of the world now lives in an area that bans plastic bags completely. We believe everyone must do more to protect, preserve, and restore the world's unparalleled natural beauty.
We believe that the infamous Thai joke that the entirety of one’s bundle must be transportable on one finger via a plastic bag, illustrates a broader truth and our central focus at WeSwear; targeting the cultural indifference that allows the world's addiction of plastic waste to persist unchecked.
