Meet Brett. A few years back, he set out to cycle from London all the way back home to Melbourne. We love it when people choose to travel in more connected ways and appreciate how Social Cycles focus on experiencing the true version of everyday life in the countries they visit. 

With Christmas just around the corner, we thought we would gather a list of our top ideas for buying better this Christmas. Adding to our latest blog post about finding your way to buying better, we have collated some top tips to help you get through the season of gift-giving and beyond.

Buying better is about asking questions, getting informed and buying what you believe is better for you, the makers and the environment. Buying better can mean something different to everybody and it is important to find what suits you best so that you can have the greatest impact possible. 

As our buying power increases, there’s been an uptick in start-ups and established brands making corporate responsibility their touchstones. As an ethical consumer, I can see my favourite brand’s true colours in how they choose to participate in Black Friday. 

Be curious, explore, experience and appreciate. A big part of the Dorsu Way is expanding our knowledge and appreciation for the world we live in, meeting new people, trying new things and being open to new ideas. Travelling can show you things you never knew existed.

Being a conscious consumer means making informed decisions.Knowing the impact of a purchase on all levels can lead to some of the biggest change, and we are on a mission to see some of that change.  As consumers, we hold an incredible amount of power.

A wise person once said to us “wear your values”. So we are. At Dorsu, we celebrate people, the world and beautiful things. We love clothes, but we also love the people who make them and care about how every garment impacts the world around it. At Dorsu, we are committed to wearing our values.
