WE SAVE THE DEADSTOCK
RE;CODE is Korea's leading sustainable fashion brand launched in 2012 with the slogan 'This is Not Just Fashion'.
The brand introduces conscientious fashion with innovative solution, which refers to upcycling deadstock fabric and garments from major brands for new use.
RE;CODE by NIKE collection in 2020 breaks fashion stereotypes and encourages the world to join the movement for the environment and a sustainable society.
RE;CODE is challenging the mainstream industry by reinterpreting design, and giving back to the environment. Working with independent designers hoping to enter the market, the collection gives them a platform for exposure to gain a foothold in the market place through collaborative design and inclusion in Re;code’s collection. Designer collaborations have included renowned UK upcycling brand Junky Styling, Andee Kang, Jaewoong Jeong, ByungMun Seo.
