COTO: New Site!
A few months ago Heather wrote about COTO, a sustainable accessory line born from a collaboration between an ex-Burton Snowboards marketer and an investment-banker-turned-artist. Their site showcasing their Fall/Winter ’07 collection has finally launched, and while the actual product won’t be available until August, you can still get a closer look at the ties, hats, suspenders, and tote bags all made from reclaimed organic sources. COTO is making use of some rare, hard to find materials (like fallen rack antlers) to make sure their products are as special as they are earth-friendly, which gives their products a sophisticated, woodsy flair. I get a kick out of these suspenders, and an even bigger kick out of the materials used to make them: organic cotton; natural rubber, low impact color elastic; and vegetable dyed leather. Take that to the farm.
