Fashion enthusiasts and eco-conscious consumers, rejoice! The Seam, a leading name in repair and sustainable fashion, has launched a repair drop-off pop-up in collaboration with Wolf & Badger at their Soho store. Running from 5–15 December, this initiative brings expert repairs directly to the heart of London’s fashion scene, offering a seamless solution to extend the life of your wardrobe staples.
The process is simple yet efficient. Customers can bring their clothes, footwear, and accessories to the Wolf & Badger Soho store during the event. A £5 deposit per item is taken, and The Seam’s team of skilled Makers then evaluates each piece. Customers receive a tailored quote for the repairs, which they can approve online before the work begins. Once completed—typically within ten working days—the repaired items are sent straight to their home via Royal Mail.
From replacing broken zippers on cherished jackets to restoring beloved leather handbags, The Seam’s services cater to a broad range of repair needs. Popular options include seam and tear fixes, knitwear restoration, and sneaker cleaning, alongside specialised offerings like embellishment repairs and embroidery. Accessories, too, are in good hands with leather dyeing, strap fixes, and handbag cleaning among the many services available.
The partnership highlights a growing movement within the fashion industry toward sustainability. By making repairs accessible and stylish, The Seam and Wolf & Badger hope to inspire shoppers to rethink the disposable nature of fashion.
Repairing an item not only reduces waste but also allows consumers to reconnect with the items they love. It offers a meaningful way to value quality and invest in the longevity of cherished wardrobe pieces.
To help customers prepare, The Seam has provided a detailed price guide online, covering common services like hemming, shoe cleaning, and zipper replacements. While staff at Wolf & Badger cannot provide pricing in-store, attendees can easily check guide prices beforehand.
For items requiring special attention, such as handbags and footwear with deep stains, The Seam offers cleaning and leather restoration services. Customers are encouraged to drop off clothing in clean condition, as dry cleaning charges may apply otherwise.
The 10-day pop-up isn’t just a repair service; it’s an opportunity to explore the tangible impact of sustainability. With the Christmas season approaching, the timing couldn’t be better for those looking to give their wardrobe a refresh—or to repair items in time for holiday gatherings.
Running until 15 December, this repair drop-off pop-up at Wolf & Badger Soho offers an exclusive opportunity to experience The Seam’s craftsmanship firsthand. Whether it’s repairing your favourite coat or restoring a pair of vintage boots, this event is a timely reminder that sustainable fashion begins with valuing what you already own.
So, why not take the first step toward a more sustainable wardrobe? Head to Wolf & Badger Soho, drop off your items for repair, and let The Seam work their magic. Sign up for reminders today and discover how small changes can make a big difference.
