Jade 0 to 1 MVP

About

The fashion industry has an emissions problem caused by garment’s high production needs and short active lifetime. 80% of the climate impact from clothing consumption occurs during the product phase — doubling a garment’s lifetime by 2x reduces its climate impact by 49%.

Jade is an early stage startup on a mission to improve access to wardrobe variety sustainably, starting with the luxury bag category in the resale and rental solution space.
