By now, almost everyone knows the SEND collective! And if not, grab some popcorn and head over to YouTube!
Dane Jackson, Kalob Grady, Bren Orton and Adrian Mattern are arguably four of the world's best whitewater kayakers. The latter two have been living in Innsbruck for almost two years now, which makes us personally very happy. So of course we couldn't say no when asked if we'd like to handle the distribution of their latest T-shirt collection. There are two designs to choose from: the Swirl Shirt (also available in turquoise/purple) and the more affordable Basic Shirt.
Production
With the SEND Ukraine Swirl T-Shirt, the Senders have done everything right. The shirt is from Stanley/Stella, a Belgian clothing company that has been committed to sustainable and fair production for years. The shirts are made from 100% fair-trade organic cotton and produced under fair conditions in Bangladesh.
The man responsible for the designs is multi-talent Bren Orton himself. The Swirl Shirt originated from a photo of eddylines in the water. Quickly traced in Photoshop and in this case coloured in the colours of the Ukrainian national flag, it's a real feast for the eyes — on top of the fact that the shirt is extremely well made. The shirts were also printed in Innsbruck, keeping production routes to an absolute minimum. And now these shirts are in our shop, ready for great adventures or at least to sweeten the wait until your next kayaking trip.
A third of the proceeds go directly to SEND. We really see our role here as a platform to support the kayakers who push the boundaries of whitewater every year and let us share in their adventures through their videos!
