Eeek! We are a Little late to the kinda chic party but after 8 years of rollercoaster entrepreneur life I kind want to focus (need to focus) on all the obstacles we already over came and some of our wins. It’s not easy to keep choosing for what is right and to keep pushing for change in difficult times. Not everyone has the résilience and I am so sure many entrepreneurs also feel the hardship lately. But you keep steering and finding ways to make it work. Last year we closed our first breakeven year since we started building the technology part. This doesn’t come easy though it means paying loans, it meant reducing team, it meant closing our Spain activities brutally 2023 and restarting them for an EU project spring 2026. As a founder it meant catching every job where we don’t have enough staff for. But after all we are still standing and growing again and all of that with approximation 1/10th of the funding US or UK based platforms get. But al least we got out of the valley of death without being owned by some VC fund which can sell the company to non ethical buyers. We’re proud to be say we’ve fully self funded since 2023.
Every decision I make I question Two Things: what is best for the mission ‘accelerating the fashion shift to a more sustainable and circular industry’ and what’s best for our members short term or long term. ((One of the reasons why we never communicated to not shop for 3/6/12 months like influencers did -> the results are clear now Circular Pioneers going bankrupt or closing, and they need more support not influencers influencing already green audiences into not shopping at all)). At COSH we strongly advocate ´Buy Less, Choose Well, Make it last´.

At times it’s hard as entrepreneurs to see the silver linings. So we’d like to invite you to share your best memory experience or learning from 8 years COSH!

We are Meanwhile working on 3 big reveals:
1 this week and 2 end of the month!

Entrepreneurs eager to become part of the network, ‘comment network’ and we’ll send the link to book a meeting.

It all starts with a material.

Made into modules, each carrying the possibility of a different form, a different silhouette.

Piece by piece, they come together -
until a garment takes shape.

Project: @persiskin x @shoelutions_lda @worth_project
A top notch vegan sneaker made with persimmon waste from the Valencia region.

The message of the project:
Persiskin and Shoelutions are companies that have both centered their mission on providing sustainable products to the market. Persiskin is a Spanish company, located in Valencia, that has developed a unique vegan skin that is based on persimmon fruit waste from the region of Valencia in Spain. The material contains more than 75% of natural matter and is produced in the same region where the persimmons are grown.
Shoelutions is a Portuguese company that focuses on sustainable fashion and crafts vegan footwear for numerous footwear brands worldwide.

The idea behind the project:
The Persiskin Project aims at designing and producing a vegan sneaker from a highly sustainable leather-like material made from persimmon fruit waste from the region of Valencia, Spain in order to demonstrate that it is possible to make a footwear product with extremely high vegetal material content (more than 75%) that delivers the same quality (resistance, durability, aspect) as animal leather or PVC while reducing the impact of the product on the environment and avoiding animal suffering. In addition, by using a raw material that was otherwise destined to waste, Persiskin returns some income to growers and contributes to revitalizing the local economy

What next?
Demonstrate that an alternative material, with a very high vegetal content, to animal leather and PVC is possible and performs equally well - or better - to make footwear.
The challenge is not only technical. It is cultural and social as the industry we target is very traditional and is not familiar with new, vegan alternatives yet.

Flora stool details. The frame is made of turned beech wood, with joints connected using wedges, allowing it to be disassemled easily. In this version we tested various vegan leather alternatives for the seat surface, including Malai, Piñatex, PersiSkin, Vegea, Desserto and Ohoskin.

The Flora was a collaborative project with Marion Duzan, developed as part of the @worth_project
