Hi Sam! Im normally a bit of a ghost on TH-cam but just wanted to say that I love your style and your videos are really well put together. Most importantly, the message you put across on your channel needs to be heard by the millions - keep up the great work mate!
Hi there!! Thanks so much for the kind words! Have been a bit of a ghost on TH-cam myself, must make time to make more videos!! Thanks again for the encouraging words it really does mean a lot to hear that people are enjoying my channel! Sam
That’s so kind of you!! I think more people are becoming aware of the importance of it, but lots of people struggle to see past the price tag of ‘sustainable’ brands! Thanks so much for watching and the encouraging words!
Your content is super interesting. I always thought I was a fast fashion consumer, and I definitely have bought most of my clothing from unethical stores - gross. I’ve come to realise the value in clothing and I’ve begun ordering more handmade dresses from local Australian businesses etc. I feel bad every time I toss an item of clothing out but it’s usually been repaired 50x over or it’s just holey undies 🤣 I put some clothing up for give away today that I purchased in 2012 😂 uh, I guess that’s a bonus… anyway, here’s to slow fashion & education I’ve also been knitting & crocheting my own clothing, so that’s a huge bonus as well
We all have and we all do!! It’s just the ‘way it’s done’ a lot of the time which is sad, but it’s why we learn and unlearn! Amazing that you’ve been repairing and making things last as long as possible! That’s slow fashion, even if you bought it from a FF company!!! My partners started knitting and I find it so interesting!! I might have to give it a go…
Loving your content and the highlighting of smaller makers that otherwise have no TH-cam presence, have you been to Manchester’s future fashion fest? ended up discovering quite a few unique small makers that way.
@@sambinstead6611 Yeah I subscribed to you to and so has my wife lol yeah I've been on here about 6 years now it's great to see you tho and man your beard has fully grown out now hasn't it damn I tryed to grow mine but I ended up shaving it off lol but will try again now the weather is going to get cold again lol 😁
Found you through RoseAnvil via Goral. I actually didn’t know what fast fashion was before, but I’m glad to know! I am slowly upgrading my clothes as I outgrow and wear them out. It is so true that the companies that make the best quality clothing, also are often the most sustainable. Would you be able to make a video overviewing slow fashion brands that you like? I honestly have pretty much always shopped second hand due to money, but knowing some good brands (and being able to search for them on ebay) would be sweet my man. Thanks for doing you! ps. Also tell Weston I should win the Muggs please 😂
Hi!! Yayy welcome to the world of slow fashion! Great to hear that you’re wearing out what you already have first! That’s the most sustainable thing you can do! I’m actually as we speak filming a video specifically about some great brands in the recycling and upcycling part of fashion, and aiming to do some videos highlighting other brands who are doing things the right way :) I highlight lots of cool makers over on my Instagram @sambinstead, but aiming to get more videos out on YT this year too! Thanks for watching!! PS if I had any sway whatsoever I’d be winning them for myself ;)

Already one of my favorite slow fashion youtubers! :) You deserve way more views!!
Thank you so much! I need to get back to it after the short break I've had!
Great quality videos Sam! Slow fashion is sadly still a very niche topic, but you're making it an interesting one.
Keep up the hard work!

@@sambinstead6611 you definitely should! It’s an invaluable skill & definitely a super big help in boycotting the FF industry ☺️☺️
