Winning an industry award is never a bad way to kick off the New Year!
We just found out that ePromos has been named a winner in Wearables magazine’s 4th annual Apparel Design Awards. The eco-friendly 60% recycled track jacket we made for CLEAR Communications managed to take home the top spot in the “Best Eco-Friendly Apparel” category. Not too shabby for a contest that was mostly made up of apparel-only businesses!
In addition to its recycled materials, the track jacket also received bonus points for its fresh and fashionable look.
Here’s an excerpt from the magazine:
WINNER: Retro Track Jacket Supplier: ePromos (asi/188515) Get back-in-the-day style with this women’s retro track jacket. It’s made of 60% recycled polyester and features custom color detailing on the sleeves and front. “Besides being made of recycled materials, I would have to say the hip retail style is its best feature,” says Jennifer Feigenbaum, account manager at ePromos. “I wanted one for myself.” The jacket was made for CLEAR, a wireless service, and it incorporated the client’s brand elements by adding bright-green sleeve stripe detailing and the logo as a zipper pull. Feigenbaum says she looked to what her peers were wearing and added the eco aspect to create the vintage-looking piece.
