To lift the lid on the traditional supply chain and prove you can actually produce great looking menswear in a sustainable way.”Kelly Slater and acclaimed designer, John Moore founded Outerknown with the belief that they have an obligation to build better products and understand the way our consumption impacts the world around us.
