Guest - MUD Jeans

Can a revolution start with a single pair of jeans?

According to Laura Vicaria, CSR Manager at MUD Jeans International, the answer is yes, and it has to be!

Every year 200,000 million pairs are sold, but not everyone knows that Jeans are one of the most polluting items in fashion, using 7,000 liters of water and nasty chemicals.

With today’s interviewee, Laura, we’ll talk about the revolution that MUD Jeans is trying to carry out: becoming an exemplary circular fashion company after introducing the pioneering Lease a jeans model in 2013 and consistently putting the circular economy principles into practice.
