About Us

We are proud to be a Portland based, woman owned, green business!

We are committed to being an environmentally sustainable business.

By repairing and recreating clothing we diminish our reliance on the consumption of foreign made clothes and take a step toward conservation and conscious living.

All paper used in the office is recycled and printed on both sides. Only environmentally friendly cleaners are used. Most importantly, replacement parts for repairs, such as zippers, are bought through SCRAP
