Re-Make was born from a lifelong passion for second-hand fashion and sustainability. Our founder, Myles, spent seven years working professionally in the second-hand fashion industry, but his journey started much earlier. Growing up, weekends were spent at traditional English car boot sales, where every item—whether toys, clothes, or forgotten treasures—had the potential for a second life. This early exposure instilled a deep appreciation for reuse, resourcefulness, and the value of giving old things new purpose.
During college, fashion and individuality became a daily expression, but keeping up with trends while working a minimum-wage job quickly exposed the gap between affordability and accessibility. Moving out at just 16, while juggling full-time education and part-time work, meant that second-hand fashion wasn’t just a choice—it was a necessity.
As fashion trends evolved, so did Myles’ perspective. Unique thrifted pieces that once held peak popularity soon faded—yet they could be easily resold online. Apps like Depop became a gateway, and from there, a small second-hand fashion business was born. What started as a means of survival transformed into a mission: to challenge wasteful fashion cycles and create something new from the discarded.
Re-Make is the next step in that journey—a brand that reworks damaged materials into one-of-a-kind, sustainable fashion. Because style should be original, ethical, and built to last.
