SHOP TRANSCENDOUR BEGINNING
Transcend began in 2020 from a refusal to accept the false choice between distinctive design, responsible production and clothing that works in real life.
OUR MATERIALS
Some Transcend pieces reclaim vintage, deadstock or surplus textiles. When we create with new fabric, we use natural fibers such as cotton, linen, silk, wool and cashmere.
OUR PEOPLE
Our work connects a Seattle production team, including refugee and immigrant makers, with skilled artisan and manufacturing partners in India and textile traditions from Bangladesh and Uzbekistan.
OUR SYSTEM
Retail, repair, upcycling, local production and technology now work together to keep materials moving and create more accessible pathways into small-batch manufacturing.
