This week, our company moved into our first real office space. It's empty save for a bottle of tequila and margarita mix (we moved in on cinco de mayo). We don't even have chairs yet, so we're sitting on the floor typing on our laptops. We're just so happy and excited to be in our office.

Our office.
It's a big deal.
Almost as big a deal as the fact that today marks Thread's first product collaboration with Pittsburgh-based bag manufacturer, Moop.
Our fabric is being used in stuff. Stuff for sale. And it looks freaking cool.
Being able to point to a finished product and say, "that bag is creating jobs, and making neighborhoods safer," makes me proud. Having the opportunity to know the people responsible for making that fabric first hand makes me grateful.
Seeing the response from our friends and families as the bags went on sale this morning, has been pretty overwhelming.
People care about where their stuff comes from. We can use trash as a resource to end poverty.
It's working.
