From Landfill to Life: Our Journey in Sustainability
At Heke Design, every piece of fabric we use has a story. What was once destined for the landfill is transformed into something new, vibrant, and meaningful.
We’ve saved over 2 tons of textile waste by partnering with local shops and the Waiheke community, turning discarded materials into one-of-a-kind fashion statements.
Our commitment to upcycling makes a difference—not just in what we wear, but in how we care for our planet.

Love my Heke Jeans!
“LOVE my Heke jeans and am astounded by the low prices. Thank you for making super wearable upcycled clothing and keeping waste clothing from the landfill.”

Upcycled GEM!
“Really liking my new pants, well made. It’s so sad it’s a million degrees in Texas so I won’t get to wear them out and about for months! Really great to find a bit of a larger size in upcycled clothes as I have found that really challenging with other vendors.”
