What do we do?
Our label was born to address and raise awareness about the unsustainable and unrenewable practices of the clothing industry. We emerged into the need of making sustainable options as the mainstream in the market, not an alternative. We aim towards redefining clothing quality and durability, while bringing hemp and other sustainable natural fibres into the use for people of both present and future generation.
We make chic clothes from Hemp, an Eco-friendly & sustainable plant that is used to create some of the world’s finest products. At Laapha, we design & make apparels and accessories for men's wear, women's wear and an extended 100% handmade collection designed for consumers that believe the need of sustainability in fashion, with versatility and function at the forefront.
