Can I/others around me see the inconsistencies?
Yes, most of these inconsistencies are easily visible as they could be in the front of your Belt or larger in size than what we typically consider a ‘regular irregularity’. A long stripe running down the front, for example, or a block of extra overlapping yarns will be visible but your Belt will still be good for many seasons and years of wear.
Why should I buy these?
If you believe in a zero-waste philosophy, have an appreciation for handcrafted pieces and wouldn’t mind wearing pieces that are a bit flawed (because aren’t we all?), our imperfects are for you.
What if they get worn out sooner?
No, our imperfects are still the same in quality as our regular priced Belt and won’t wear out sooner. What makes these Belts different is that they have highly noticeable irregularities, such as patches with an incorrect weave or a colour difference when compared to the original design.
Why don’t you sell them as regular pieces if the inconsistencies are so small/not visible?
Technically, we could. But as a brand we are transparent about our processes and pieces.
Can you show me the exact inconsistencies in the piece I order?
No, we cannot individually send you photos as that’s logistically not possible. However, every product description includes some general pictures that will give you an overall idea.
