ECOALF is a modern fashion brand with a focus on sustainability which was founded by Javier Goyeneche in 2012. His idea to start his own brand was born from a deep frustration with the excessive use of the world´s natural resources and the huge amount of waste produced especially by the fashion industry. All Ecoalf products are produced with the same attention to quality, design and function as the best non-recycled products.
