A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

MODERATORS
Naked and Famous are great but very expensive. They use exotic fabrics and make exclusive, limited edition runs that, IMHO, would be wasted on workwear.
If you're looking for regular selvedge denim at a fraction of N&F's price, while still uncompromising on quality, durability and fabric, their no-label sub-brand The Unbranded Brand are awesome. I've worn 2 pairs already (both lost to crotch blowout after 3-4 years of daily wear, the issue being me getting fatter, not the jeans themselves). I've just started wearing my latest pair, an UB301.
Interesting… didn’t know that existed. Will have to check them out. And yeah, i should have pointed out they may be too expensive to be used for harder labor, they’re just the ones i’ve owned that have held up the longest so they came to mind.
