"Getting to wear designer clothing is not something I would usually do. Nowadays in everyday life renting is or will be more and more popular, so the idea of sharing (is caring) is fantastic. "

"Wearing this remarkable shirt has been a cool lesson about enjoying, appreciating and
sharing a piece of clothing that has a life of its own. I'm glad to have been a part of it.

"I loved wearing the shirt but especially, I am glad to be a part of such a great project. When I heard and read about Shirting project quite some time ago, my first thoughts were - what a cool project that is. It includes all the aspects of contemporary living we are trying to be conscious about. Thank you for your work! Keep on Shirting! "

"I enjoyed the playful aspect of shirting, particularly being able to choose where and how to button the additional panels, in fact, I moved them slightly throughout the day... ongoing play. I enjoyed being able to support the project and the conversations wearing the shirt provoked. I received compliments throughout the day on the shirt, which was beautifully designed and made."
Jennifer
"Nice experience makes you feel that shirt has own personality and past. When I was wearing it, I also met one of previous wearer and talked about the project, so it is also connecting people."

"I’m happy to be in a shirting community, along with such inspiring and interesting people. "

"I was very excited to unwrap and discover my shirt. It felt very special to wear. I had it
for 5 very hot and busy days so there wasn't as much opportunity to wear it as I would
like but the time we shared, I enjoyed very much."
jan
"I like the idea of circle, sharing, experience, recycle and communication and advertising at the same time. "
simona
"Great project, great experience! Together we create a fresh new story (something new and exciting). It's nice to keep track where all shirts travel."
Petra
"The shirt was wonderful and as if made for me. I felt comfortable and elegant at once. So I decided to buy it and subvert the project in the first place. Why not have and possess the piece if it suited me so well?? Yet the whole concept is based on sharing, giving and not possessing. After I grasped the idea I loved it. I find it as an alternative to mainstream fashion and capitalist driven society. So yes, shirting is the right thing to do. "
Nadja
"I really loved the shirt: the material, the shape and all in all it was a pleasure to wear it. I used at my working place in a co-working office and beside my comfortable feelings I had compliments from co-workers too. With this shirting experience I have a chance to speak strangers and speak about the related topics as Eastern European fashion, sustainable fashion, unconventional marketing, real customer experiences :-)"

… the reason
_
overproduction, overconsumption and
underappreciation of clothes
_
unethical and
nonecological fashion industry practice
_ the fashion industry perpetuates
exploitation of cheap and overseas production
_ being pushed into an immediate and
constant consumption of clothes
_
uninspired clothing
… our response
_ creation of
a social object – a shirt – that connects designers and users directly
_ a sustainable clothing model that employs
environment-friendly methods and concepts
_ a process that creates an opportunity for a
different type of community
_ a community that
rethinks and revalues the accepted fashion norms
_ creating
relationships outside of the logic of consumerism
_ a network of
different values and ways of being created through an item of clothing
_ slow and socially
responsible fashion with
ethics and transparency & simplicity
_ fostering a personal
relationship towards clothing
_
raising awareness through development of
new practices
_
no ownership – no one actually owns the shirt … each user only
takes care and responsibility for it
