Howdy! (Texans here).

Did you know that the word "loot" is actually one of the very first Indian words to sneak its way into the English language?

It's the indian slang for "raid" - like raiding your sibling's closet. That's the vibe we're going for here.

But here's the deal, looking good shouldn't come at the expense of our planet.

We totally get that the clothing industry is wreaking havoc on our environment. From loads of waste to crazy carbon emissions, it's a serious footprint.

That's where we come in! We've created this awesome second-hand platform where you can buy an outfit that looks just like a normal, off the rack choice. But better. Because it's helping save the earth. And that's a pretty huge deal. We're all about embracing circular fashion and giving clothes a second chance by keeping them out of those dreaded landfills. Every single piece we curate is chosen for its killer quality, style, and bonus... you collect good karma points for an earth-happy purchase.

Here's the best part: when you shop with us, you're joining a movement that's all about sustainability and ethical fashion. We're breaking down the stigma around second-hand items in our South Asian culture, showing the world that it's in to rock pre-loved clothes. And guess what? By going second-hand, you're helping to cut down on textile waste and reducing the demand for new resources. You're basically being an eco-warrior and making the planet happier for our future babies.

Our goal is to build a community that's all about being eco-conscious and caring about our environment and everything related to it, no matter how big or small. So, dive into our collection, flaunt your unique style, and be part of the movement that's totally shaping the future of fashion—one conscious choice at a time. We're SO stoked to have you on board.
