Скачать или смотреть We bought NO new clothes for TWO years! 👖🚫 How it went + what we learned!

Two years ago, we set our family of 5 the challenge of buying NO new clothes for a year!

Our goal? To challenge ourselves on our sustainability around clothes, and to focus on reducing our environmental, and human footprint. If you've ever thought about the sustainability of clothes and what we can do about our footprint, or if you've wondered about a period of no new clothes - hit play and hear all about our experience wins, and fails!

Clothing is one of the most detrimental industries to the environment, and a decade of shopping more intentionally and ethically led us to realise - we need to use what’s already in circulation. In this video, we share the full story: Why we took on this challenge, the rules we set, the struggles we faced during the year, why we extended it beyond the initial year, the moments we fell short, and the invaluable lessons we’ve learned.

If you’re curious about sustainable living or looking to challenge your own shopping habits as we head into 2025, this is the perfect place to start!

No new clothes | No buy year | no buy | nothing new
