Behind the Scenes: The Art of Upcycling Denim at Doubletake

Hi there, fellow thrift store lovers and eco-conscious fashionistas! Have you ever wondered what happens to those worn-out jeans that end up at Doubletake? Well, brace yourself for a behind-the-scenes peek into our exciting world of upcycling!

Step 1: Selection and Sorting

It all begins in the backroom, where our dedicated staff and volunteers meticulously sort through the donations. The worn-out jeans that can’t be sold are carefully brought to our upcycling studio — it’s not the end, but rather a new beginning in their denim journey!

 

Step 2: A Creative Buzz in the Upcycling Studio

Welcome to our vibrant, creative hub! Here, a diverse group of upcycling volunteers — from community members learning the ropes to sustainability enthusiasts — work their magic. They carefully transform denim into trendy designs, from bucket hats to tote bags. It's like a full-blown denim makeover party!

 


Step 3: Quality Checks That Matter

But we’re not done just yet! Each item undergoes a rigorous quality inspection. Strong straps, reinforced seams, and meticulous attention to detail ensure our products are not only visually striking but also long-lasting. Who says sustainability can’t be stylish and durable?


Step 4: Showcasing Our Masterpieces

Now it’s time for our repurposed jewels to shine ✨
Each piece tells a unique story of transformation — turning worn-out denim into something bold, sustainable, and beautifully crafted. These treasures light up our social media feeds, and every item carries the essence of creativity and second chances. They give new life to materials that would otherwise go to waste.

Our upcycled products are available exclusively online and at select in-store pop-up markets. Discover these one-of-a-kind pieces in person and take home a treasure that’s as unique as you are
