Creative Director & Chief Executive at Walden Outdoor Athletic LLC - Fresno, California, United States
Each year humans discard over 8 million tons of plastic into the ocean. The damage wrought on marine life is vast and varied, killing species at all levels of the food chain due to starvation, suffocation, poisoning, and entanglement in debris. Because ecosystems are interconnected, this affects not only wildlife, but also vulnerable human communities. The destruction is unsustainable and it's time we put a stop to it. At Walden Outdoor Athletic, we manufacture swimwear, activewear, underwear, and accessories using textiles produced from recycled plastics. We aim to divert plastic waste from polluting waterways and instead use this material to produce durable and meaningful goods. We believe there is power in community and that we must rally to make an impact. We want you with us in this effort.The skull and pine represented in our logo contrasts the transience of man against the longevity of nature. Wear these emblems as a badge of honor and symbol of solidarity. The time for action is now, let's do it together.
