Very cool Gaurdian weekly podcast special on the new Massive Attack album here
Yesterday we met for the first time with our peeps in India, we’ve been looking forward to this for a long time. We got to meet everyone and got a tour of the very impressive factory. Over 500 people work in this building with some seriously impressive kit and work-flows. Gosia is there today checking on our summer 10/11 samples before we head to some of our cotton farms in the next couple of days. We’ll post some video and more shots soon. From India with love… Kowtow

There’s a wall just outside our workroom which is illegally bill posted, been meaning to create some art out of it for a while, these guys have inspired me.

This week we launched our 100% upcycled bag. The outer is made from Kowtow Fairtrade Organic Tees, lining is excess stock sourced from a fashion workroom and the handles are made from hessian coffee sacks donated by Peoples Coffee. Each bag also comes with a free kowtow music compilation CD featuring some of NZ’s best. A über ethical Xmas pressie available with one of four different prints! Bag Designed by Kassy Hayden from Hubert & Rhymes.
