This just happened and I am a little at a loss for words. I mean, did this really just happen?! From the very beginning of our mission to revolutionize the fashion industry and mitigate its environmental impact, we set ambitious goals. Some were small steps, while others aimed for the stars. Why limit ourselves, right? A few minutes ago we were selected as one of the top 15 finalists in the prestigious third annual The Earthshot Prize!!  To describe this honor as monumental would be an understatement. Being recognized as a finalist alongside such an accomplished group of climate action champions, all dedicated to addressing the world's most urgent environmental issues, is a dream come true—a dream that is now our reality. I’ll post a few more updates as the day unfolds. We're profoundly grateful for this opportunity to amplify our efforts in textile-to-textile recycling and make an even more significant impact worldwide.  Congratulations are also in order for our fellow finalists. We're all united in our mission to save our planet! #CircEarth #TheEarthShotPrize #Finalist
