WHO WE ARE

LOTI is an Upcycling Design Studio based between Lima, Peru and Los Angeles, CA. We are taking part in the Upcycling Revolution by reusing materials that would otherwise fill landfills and giving them a much-deserved second life.
LOTI was founded in the spring of 2021 with the intention of challenging textile waste culture, while supporting the work of Peruvian craft men + women.
We exclusively source + reuse natural fibers. To date, we've Upcycled the following textiles:
  • 100% cotton
  • 100% alpaca wool
  • 100% merino wool
  • 100% leather
  • 100% silk
We’re working on making every part of our business increasingly responsible. We plan to address sustainability through the life cycle of our product, down to our unique minimal waste packaging.
As a brand that creates clothing + other textile items, we want to acknowledge that making any "new items"* is inherently unsustainable. However, we believe we are doing some good by creating handcrafted, beautiful garments out of materials that would otherwise become waste.
*"New items" is in quotations, as the pieces are new, but the materials used to make them are not.
