ThredUp’s Resale Boom vs. Kantamanto’s Crisis: What Circular Fashion Is Leaving Out
From this week’s edition of Week/End—our weekly Substack newsletter covering the biggest headlines in sustainable fashion.
Staying on top of sustainability news shouldn’t feel like a full-time job. With nonstop updates and endless reports, it’s hard to know what actually matters—and how it impacts your work, your strategy, and the future of the industry.
That’s why we created Week/End: a weekly newsletter on Substack that saves you time, keeps you up to date, and helps you stay ahead in a fast-changing industry.
No endless scrolling. No juggling tabs. Just one streamlined email every Saturday—with the insights you actually need, from policy shifts and trade disruptions to the signals shaping consumer behavior and sustainability strategy.
