Secondhand Websites & Upcycled Garments: Why Outdoor Brands Need To Do Better

Today on THE ROCK FIGHT (an outdoor podcast that aims for the head) Colin opens the show by offering his thoughts on two sustainability focused stories to come out of the outdoor industry in the past week. Flylow announced the arrival of it's secondhand e-commerce site while Cotopaxi launched a new collection of upcycled garments. And while both initiatives are admirable, outdoor brands are much to dependent on these types of avenues to claim that they are being 'sustainable' and/or 'circular'. Then Colin & Producer Dave give their initial thoughts on Outdoor Retailer moving to one event per year and wrap up the show with their parting shots.
