TOAST Circle
Keeping well-crafted pieces in circulation
We are guided by timeless design, creating long-lasting pieces from quality materials with a richness of texture. We value the time and the people behind each of our garments and continuously explore resourceful ways to keep our garments in use for longer.
Throughout 2024, you helped us give 4,751 garments a second life - one repaired, exchanged, renewed and reworn item at a time.

TOAST Exchange, our events-based clothes swap
1,324 garments were exchanged through our clothes swapping events.

Reworn | Previously Loved Pieces
Our latest initiative, TOAST Reworn, offers an alternative to buying new, with pieces that have been previously loved or selected from past collections. From cotton twill trousers and fisherman rib sweaters to ticking stripe shirts and garment dyed linen jumpsuits.
Renewed | Creatively Repaired Pieces
Our collection of one-of-a-kind, creatively repaired pieces. Each item has been thoughtfully mended to give it a new lease of life. From sashiko repaired workwear garments to darned knitwear and intricately embroidered dresses.
Our Partnership with Traid
We have partnered with Traid, a UK charity working towards reducing the social and environmental impact of our clothes.
TOAST items that we are not able to repurpose through our Circle initiatives will be donated to Traid. 10% of the revenue from the sale of Reworn garments will also be donated to Traid’s long-term programme with educational foundation Rights Education And Development Centre (READ).
