Sustainability & My Thoughts

What Materials do you mainly use?

“Normally I use a vary of different materials, mainly I use a lot of denim, I never really buy ‘new’ fabric by the roll. All of the denim I use is patchworked out of pairs of Carhartt & Dickies Jeans.

I also use sublimated fabrics, organic cottons and canvas materials mainly!

If I am using any other fabrics 99.9% I am either going to scrap stores near by or up cycled fabric I find in da Wilddd”

Why focus on second-hand materials?

“ Well, using second-hand denim has been part of my journey from the very start. Back in 2017, I used to walk to the local thrift store/jumble sales, lug back 20x pairs of jeans and then craft them into the foundations of what I am still building today…

…first off, I think its something I’ve always done, Naturally I gravitated towards cheaper alternatives because back in the day I didn’t have the money to afford the more expensive materials.

As times gone on I’ve never felt the need to go down the fast fashion lane - I can see what its doing to the world, I’d rather choose to carry on building my craft and avoid adding more horrible fabrics and cut corner low quality clothing to the world. Its all 1/1 babbyy!

How do you ensure your products are high-quality?

I’ve been creating clothing for around 8 years now. Focusing on Jackets, Trousers, Bags and just anything my brain feels like creating. As far as the patchwork denim I use a lot of darning techniques & back and forth stitching on seams to be able to ensure they’re wearable.

As I always say, Roughcut isn’t for daily wear. It is to be worn on special occasions as it is a special piece of clothing! (WASH INSTRUCTIONS COME WITH ORDERS)
