Hello to all !
I follow your forum from a while and now it's time to present me.

I'm Marco, from Italy, and I'm trying to start a small activity that realized fashion products, jacket and bags, from old and unused kite sails.
Everything is made by myself with my mother help, I'm working on it only in my free time...

Take a look into the website and say what do you think about it.

What a clever use of old kites that would end up in the bin all for re cycling??

Good on you for recycling but when you charge 300 euro+ for a jacket that is way to expensive for anyone in oz . Good luck

Have you checked that it's ok to use a kite company logo on your garments? If not, you might need to make sure it's not breaching any TM laws. Great idea BTW. Good on you for recycling - it's the future.

Seems like a great idea for the east coast, but if someone wore this stuff in Geraldton....they'd just go flying into a brick wall at 2pm when the seabreeze comes in!!!

Better not use Cabrinha or you'll end up in a tree!
