Rainbow Vest. This item was once a jacket or a tent.
Limited run only.
Collaborating with Remote Equipment Repairs (RER), I Dream Of Snow this thrilled to offer Rainbow Vests for sale. These vests will be made from vests and/or jackets that have been donated to RER to be repurposed instead of going into landfill.
The vests will be sewn with a rainbow of colours on the back, have an I Dream Of Snow embroidered fabric patch on the outside lefthand side chest, an R4 label (RER's in-house brand for products made from materials that have been repurposed, repaired, reused and/or recycled) and sustainability swing tags.
Please Note: the sizes and base colour of the vest (such as black and as shown in the above photo) will vary and are dependent on what RER has in stock.
The lead time will be 4-6 weeks from when the deposit is paid, giving RER time to source sizes rework the vests. This is a bespoke offering and neither RER nor I Dream Of Snow can guarantee all requests but we will try our very best to source sizes and colours for you.
In the event that it is not possible to fulfil a size request, the vest purchase price will be fully refunded.
Product comes with 100% manufacturing and functional lifetime repair guarantee.
Remade from 100% Post Consumer Textiles donated from the partners & customers whom RER repair for. Developed and SEWN in Melbourne by RER.
Remote Equipment Repairs was established in the early 90s. The business had the foresight way back then to see there was a demand to repair and restore gear in a small effort to reduce the amount of landfill. In the very beginning the business serviced a small community of outdoor enthusiast, climbers and cross-country skiers. Over the years the business has expanded services to include the sailing community, motorcycle enthusiasts, schools, scouting groups and emergency services.
At its very heart the core ethics of repair, recycle and reuse have seen this small business partner with many of the largest brands and distributors in Australia and abroad. RER now delve further into a circular economy, sourcing products that have been produced and cannot be sold. They use these discarded apparel and textiles and turn them into renewed products, upcycled materials or recycling feedstock for future repairs giving an item a new footprint. By renewing, recycling and restoring they want to take a small step to giving a second life to a created product with a reduction in landfill and a hug to mother nature.
