Founded in 1997 in rural Wales by Jessica and Jamie Seaton, TOAST began with relaxed loungewear and nightwear inspired by the rugged British countryside. Today, it’s a mindful lifestyle brand offering simple, functional clothing and thoughtfully curated homeware produced in collaboration with global artisans, mild hand‑woven linen dresses, block‑printed cotton pyjamas, mohair throws, ceramic tableware, and even hot-water-bottle covers.

Their ethos? A commitment to slow living meets active sustainability. The TOAST Circle program brings pieces back to life via Reworn (pre-loved resale), Repair (free visible mending), Renewed (artisan-repaired collections), and local Exchange swaps, together repairing over 7,000 garments and mending thousands more. With in-house repair services, weaving workshop events, and a 2024 Social Conscience Report, TOAST proves longevity is the anti-fast-fashion revolution, grounded in craftsmanship and care, from Wales to the West Village.

Paloceras is a Guadalajara-based independent eyewear brand committed to redefining how Mexico is seen, and how Mexico sees itself. Founded on the idea of celebrating local culture through design, Paloceras crafts eyewear that embodies the raw beauty and complexity of Mexico’s identity.

Each frame is designed in Mexico and produced in small batches, combining quality materials with striking, understated forms. They aim for designs that are unpretentious yet expressive, honoring local creative traditions while resisting mass-produced sameness. Paloceras embraces a slower design process that values thoughtful details, material honesty, and emotional durability, making each pair not just a functional accessory, but a cultural statement.

Their ethos is to break away from stereotypes and reimagine what Mexican design can be: honest, timeless, and rooted in place. For Paloceras, eyewear is not just about seeing clearly, it’s about seeing deeply, acknowledging heritage, and wearing it with pride.
