Three out of five garments go to landfill within a year of being purchased.
Fashion produces 35% of micro-plastics found in the ocean
Less than 1% of clothing is recycled at the end of its life
We can make a difference, by supporting upcycled.

Made with Love
I love each bag because they've been made from materials I've personally selected from op-shops, charity stores and vintage stores. Each is unique!
The Mooch Mission
I started sewing bags in 2021 during the covid lockdown. Instead of using new fabrics, I used unwanted jeans and remnant fabric to help reduce landfill waste. I'm passionate about upcycling and protecting the environment, having worked as a marine biologist for the last 2 decades. Mooch Denim Upcycled is a combination of these 2 passions, where I aim to highlight the problem of fast fashion and provide an alternative through upcycling.
Oh, and did I mention that I just LOVE bags?!?
