Our Mission
Rep.Textiles was started to achieve three goals:
-
Create elevated designs. -
Clean our planet. -
Fund climate initiatives.
So that's how we’ve shaped our brand - we create clever and subtle climate change messaging, on textiles that remove harmful plastics from our ocean and eco-systems. All while donating 40% of profits to charities making big impacts to help the climate crisis.
Our signature blue-green wave pattern was designed with the vision to have a uniting symbol the fight for climate change.

About our desgins
We create designs that illustrate ideas and questions to get people thinking. Rep.Textiles designs are meant at first glance to seem unrelated to climate change. Once the viewer studies the design or reads the design description, it becomes apparent what ideas are being portrayed.
We do this for two reasons; firstly to offer a different perspective on the subject of climate and illustrate these ideas through concepts that are familiar with. Secondly, we want our brand to be more subtle with our green values. We know that green branding is almost always just that, green! We want to show that the movement can be branded without leaves and trees.
Check out Our Apparel, and you will see a design description tab that provides the intent behind the graphics. You can use this as your response if someone asks, “Hey, cool shirt! Do you know what it means?” and start an interesting conversation on the topic.
