Kawan HANDEP; Fashionably Sustainable

We’re happy to announce (and introduce) Kawan HANDEP (or Friends of HANDEP). A new initiative we created in 2023 to offer visitors of our flagship store in Ubud, Bali better options to fast fashion goods. 

Kawan HANDEP is aimed to showcase brands who have sustainability and ethical practices as part of their brand DNA. Ranging from responsibly sourced material to community impact programs, we’ve curated a collective of local Indonesian brands who are leading the way to create lasting change.

Dip into Goldare Swimwear, an eco-friendly brand that transforms fishnets and plastic waste into comfortable pieces you’ll love showing off at the beach.

Using waste material that has been recycled into regenerated nylon, Goldare Swimwear aims to offer affordable swimwear with a positive impact that feels like your second skin whenever you wear it.

Handwoven and thoughtfully crafted, KaNID creates high-quality fashion pieces that will become your staple favorites in no time.

Using natural materials like teak leaves or mahogany wood to dye their products to create patterns and colors on 100% premium quality rayon statement scarves that will add a little pizzazz to any outfit.

KAMU Wear

Linen never felt so good. KAMU Wear aims to provide conscious consumers with clothes that are cool on the skin, and the conscience.

Partnering with organizations to empower those with disabilities to create their versatile pieces, each KAMU Wear piece also comes with a tree-planting initiative for every piece sold.

We’re proud to introduce our little own Sustainable Brands Class of 2023, with the hopes to partner and showcase more brands in the coming years. We firmly believe that sustainable and ethical is the way forward, and Kawan HANDEP is here to show consumers that more and more brands are committed to create lasting change.
