NO LOITERING

No Loitering was designed as an adaptive sportswear collection with three intrinsic values: functionality, sustainability, and accessibility (for people with disabilities). It is inspired by the dirtbag climbers of Yosemite National Park in the 1960s-80s, men and women who birthed the concept of ‘clean climbing’ - the idea that actions in nature have consequences, and that the human race needs a higher level of respect for the land on which it interacts. The collection facilitates this interaction. Designed as genuinely practical clothing that people of varied abilities and needs would want to wear to get outside themselves.
