We stand for sustainability and longevity. That's why we make timeless fashion that will accompany you for many years. Because the longer the life cycle of an item of clothing, the more sustainable it is.
That's why we show you here how to best repair and care for your clothes. And how you can ensure that discarded clothing is returned to the fashion cycle in a sustainable way.
If clothes are cared for properly, their lifespan is extended. Here you can find out everything you need to know about caring for our natural fibers. We also show you how you can save energy. So you can enjoy your favorite items for a long time and protect your wallet and the environment.
If something does need to be repaired - no problem. We'll show you step by step how to darn holes, sew on buttons, repair broken seams and much more. This extends the life of your favorite items, conserves resources and reduces clothing waste.

Our partner: Aktion Hoffnung
Would you like to support a clothing collection that meets strict ethical standards? Our partner Aktion Hoffnung stands for responsible handling of clothing donations and old clothes. The old favorite items are sorted and either reused or recycled, depending on how they are received. Aktion Hoffnung uses the proceeds to support One World and educational projects. The charitable collection organization from Bavaria designs and controls the entire process itself: from collecting the clothes to sorting them.
Do you love the material, but no longer like the cut? Or a frequently worn favorite piece is showing signs of wear? Then get creative and develop your own upcycling project.
Turn old into new
The better the quality of the materials, the more worthwhile it is. Because even if trends change - the unique feel of organic cotton, organic virgin wool & co. never goes out of fashion. For many, this is one of the most important reasons to give their discarded garments a new lease of life.
What usually surprises beginners when doing it themselves is that as soon as the first step is taken, one idea after another comes to mind. Whether it's turning your beloved jeans into a bag or turning a men's shirt into a lightweight top - picking up scissors and a sewing machine yourself is and remains one of the most sustainable ways to show your fashion enthusiasm.
The earth's resources are finite. Nevertheless, we consume more than nature can produce.
The fashion industry is part of the problem and needs to be fundamentally reformed. We think so: Clothing must be valued again. Materials should be sustainable, durable, recyclable and repairable. The way we treat the people who produce our fashion should be fair and respectful. These are all criteria that have been a top priority at hessnatur from the very beginning.
We are convinced that together we can achieve a lot. That is why we have collected a few everyday tips and show here what each individual can do.
