Silas Baxter Neal + Mike Falco of Unless Collective

Launching something new at this time, no matter what it is, is…hard. Doing it with conviction and an entirely new way of manufacturing that’s based on values rather than instant profit? In this economy? Impossible.Unless (wait for it..) you’re Unless Collective. They’re making high quality gear - hoodies, pants, tees - all of your favorites, made with organic materials, and zero plastic. Let’s say that again - zero plastic, which, unsurprisingly, is in basically all clothing made today. Their gear biodegrades, you can bury it it next to your tomatoes, and it’s also great to skate in – hence their tapping industry heavy hitters of Silas Baxter-Neal – let’s all revist his Origin part – and Albany, NY’s own Mike Falco to launch a skate program. Today on the pod, we talk with Silas and Mike making gear in an intentional way, skate camping trips in the Pacific Northwest, and how crazy it is to watch Evan Smith skate in person - he’s on the team as well :).
