Birds Fly to DC: Oiselle x Summit to Soul

Birds Fly to DC: Oiselle x Summit to Soul

by Sally Bergesen

We love Washington, DC. And the many women who have become friends and teammates in this incredible city; the heartbeat of our country. Like all good relationships, it’s been building over time… to new levels of trust and connection. Maybe it started with our Born + Raced in DC tee way back in 2011. Or the run-friends we came to know through that city’s renowned races: Cherry Blossom, Marine Corps, and more. Or maybe it was the rushing toward each other we did following the 2016 election. We marched on Washington. We explored museums. We stayed sane - together.

INTRODUCING THE FABRIC FORWARD PROGRAM

It’s estimated that 10-30% of fabrics created for the garment industry end up as waste. Even the best factories often struggle to get that number below 10%. And it’s a problem that has only increased as many apparel makers have been caught up in the world of more-is-more, fast fashion.
