TRUE TO OUR ROOTS

Born in South Africa and raised in Ireland.  We are a family of entrepreneurs who merged the values of African Ubuntu with the green community spirit of Ireland. Our products are handcrafted as part of a circular economy, ensuring that they are truly sustainable and green. Our children published a book on entrepreneurship under the mentorship of Archbishop Desmond Tutu, and we are proud to continue this legacy.

FAST vs SLOW

Did you know that Fast-Fashion is responsible for 10% of global carbon emissions? There is  hunger for newness in the developed world. Wardrobes are saturated so customers are tempted with newness and trends. This comes at huge cost to the environment .Water pollution, toxic chemical use and textile waste leads to climate change and starvation in poorer countries. At Vogel De Voyage. we choose to be a SLOW FASHION Company . We up-cycle aircraft fabrics. We use alternative fabrics like pine-apple leather. We hand-craft every product. We are deliberately slow. This ensures that every product is robust enough to last you a life-time.
