We are intercepting that material and creating beautiful, limited edition, meaningful clothing and gear out of it. Since our launch in September 2009 we have been featured in several magazines and on-line communities creating a great buzz about our upcycling ways. It is an exciting movement and we want you to be a part of it. We're looking for a team to help us tell our story.

LOOPTWORKS

Looptworks is trying to reduce excess and change the way people think about buying.

We all want to make the world a better place, so we're doing our part by turning excess (pre-consumer waste, so stuff that's right off the production line, and just didn't get used) and making something unique, meaningful, and beautiful out of it.

Our hope is that by re-using materials that are being wasted, we can rid the world of excess. And maybe along the way we can inspire our generation to reduce their impact on the planet as well.

We’re looking for a team of people to help us tell the story.  What we need from you is simple: to contribute to our website by blogging about relevant activities, filling us in on what cool things are going on in your community, taking some photos and videos, and promoting the message. We ask that you send us in updates a few times a week, and in return we’ll hook you up with some swag, and other free stuff as times goes by. 

Pay is simple, the more people you reach with your secret agent code, the more you make. We will give you a code that you use in all of your communication and if people buy stuff on our site and use your code, they get a discount and you get a commission.  Also, if you need some product to take on your next trip, or want some shirts for your friends to wear around town, we’ll take care of it.  If we start to grow in your community, based on your efforts and connections, you will too!

So if you’re the type that gets friends together for a session (skate or surf), scouts new trails for a good weekend ride or attends great events, concerts and parties, and you know where to find the best micro brew and music in town, then we want you to be in our loop. 
It would be great if you:

• are over 21
• are a good writer
• are good talking to people
• are good with a camera
• are trying to leave no trace
