Manifest
The garments of ici are born here, now, in a world that needs to pause and rethink itself. We understand clothing not only as an expression of our personality but also as an act of respect and responsibility.
"Here Clothing » is a response to the threats that fashion poses to the environment and the well-being of people. We believe that by creating and producing locally, we can reduce our environmental footprint, improve transparency and quality, and value local skills and expertise.
Reducing the Environmental Footprint
Local production minimizes transportation distances and, therefore, the greenhouse gas emissions associated with international transport. Furthermore, by producing on demand, we reduce waste and can make small adjustments based on each user’s needs. This proximity among the various participants allows for more efficient and responsible production.
Transparency and Control
Local production gives us greater control over production practices. Avoiding distant suppliers allows us to ensure ethical and safe working conditions, adopt more sustainable and ecological methods, and maintain better quality control of our garments. Each piece is the result of close collaboration—a process where the designer, weaver, tailor, and user come together to ensure that each garment is unique and made with the utmost respect for all parties involved.
Valuing Local Skills
In every region or country, traditional skills and expertise represent invaluable cultural heritage. At ICI, we deeply admire and value these skills in Mexico, highlighting that every garment is the result of collaboration between those who design, plan, and create. We are inspired by the individuals whose knowledge and creativity give life to each piece, contributing to preserving and promoting these unique traditions.
Purchasing a "Here Clothing" garment from ICI is a valuable experience—each piece reflects quality, exclusivity, and respect: for the people who create it, the individuals who wear it, and the planet. That is true luxury.
