From Kali Dogwear founders:
Annika the founder was in need of a new collar in Bali, Indonesia. No good quality to be found and only cheap plastic collars were sold. She decided to create her own collar as sustainable as she could, since Bali was in a crisis of pollution.
After her first round she added some coconut yarn and tried to find metal buckles instead of the usual plastic ones.
At the same time herself and her friends who are solo rescuers in Bali were struggling with the ongoing street dogs in need. Vet bills were just increasing without an end in sight. She was thinking about a sustainable way how to help the street dogs, without being in need of donations every single time.
Since her collar got quite some good feedback and her friends were asking for their own ones, she realized THIS was the solution.
There is a need for lasting plastic-free collars AND that is how she can create funds for street dogs.
Why do we partner with them?
We admire Kali Dogwear's vision. They start by using sustainable materials, like organic cotton, which are easy to recycle. They run local workshops that pay fair wages and help dogs in need by donating part of their profits. They manage to create strong, beautifully designed products. We are proud to include them in our collection and plan to introduce more of their products to our customers in the future.
