About your co-host:


James Bartle from Outland Denim


James Bartle is the founding CEO of Outland Denim, a fashion company on the vanguard of the socially conscious manufacturing movement. I am passionate about denim and the craft of jean manufacturing, but also the unique ability of the garment industry to drive change.  Outland Denim employs young women seamstresses who’ve been impacted by human rights abuses and gives them a hope and a future through sustainable employment and career progression in our Cambodia-based production facilities.
