High fashion meets high function as the pockets in the cargo pants are coolant lined and fit the exact size of the drink can, while the bucket hat doubles as an ice bucket. Simple, yet effective.

Remake is encouraging consumers to stop shopping
Put simply, we all own too much stuff. And with our society’s constant urge to shop, loads of garments end up unworn and in landfills. So for the third summer in a row, non-profit collective Remake — which is on a mission to disrupt the clothing industry — is challenging consumers to pause purchasing new clothes for 90 days. From now until September 1, take the #NoNewClothes pledge and help to save over 9,700 litres of water, 207 kg of CO2e, 9.1 kg of waste, plus a whole lot of your own money.

Plus, sizing for their collections now reaches 3XL in bottoms and size 46 in bras.
