All of us are in the grip and thick of the COVID-19 crisis! Most nations have been in a lockdown situation since the last couple of months! The economy has come to a screeching halt and everything is on pause mode! Most of us are struggling to keep ourselves afloat!
India, much like the west, has developed into a throwaway economy in the last one decade! Barely used resource intensive products tend to find their way in landfills! ‘Reuse’ and ‘refurbishment’ as concepts are still at a very nascent stage in our country!
However these unprecedented times will surely alter the way people buy and consume products and services! We foresee a shift from a wasteful consumerism driven economy to a more circular economy!
With lesser resources at hand, every buy will be recycled and repurposed! This will soon become a habit & will evolve into a mindset all together! We will –
Repairing and mending will come back in a big way to create value in the old and the familiar!
The mending mindset will become the new norm for sustainable living! COVID-19 will make fixing ‘cool’!
At The Leather Laundry we aim at popularising the ‘mend mentality’ of soldering on!
We repurpose wasteful to useful through our mending, darning, repair, up-cycling & restoration services! We give a new lease of life to your precious handbags and shoes!
