About Us

Right now, we’re pressured to buy clothing that’s practically disposable. Companies roll out new collections every week to keep up with ever-changing trends. More often than not, these garments are made with cheap materials at the cost worker and environmental health.

Patch makes it easier to make sustainable choices when shopping for clothing. The browser extension helps you think through your purchases and find sustainable alternatives that fit your style.


Mission

By making sustainable shopping attainable, fun, and instinctive, it helps users build a habit of thinking deeper about their purchases.
