about ajk

AJK started as a platform to share designs, experiment with textiles and an excuse to make clothing for friends. Over time, designs developed and AJK outgrew pushing her bed up against the wall to cut orders, sewing set after set on a worn out machine. Our collections are now created with a focus on hemp blends, timeless silhouettes and creative expression. Sewn by those who share our values, including AJK herself who is currently sewing in her Byron Bay studio.

AJK believes sustainable and ethical practices are non-negotiable when starting any endeavour. So, as demand grew, the focus on these practices became even more important. Today, AJK designs pieces made from fabrics that prioritise lower environmental impact. We are particularly passionate about organic hemp and how it can be used to push the boundaries of sustainable fashion. 

Our brand is currently based between Oahu, Hawai'i and Byron Bay, Australia. Our collections can be a combination of small-batch staples, where we mostly use our organic hemp and cotton blends, as well as our limited edition apparel made from vintage and remnant fabrics.

Our focus is on timeless, innovative design that combines comfort and style, versatile silhouettes embrace endless style over fleeting trends. Each staple piece is crafted with longevity in mind. Created to be worn, lived in and loved. 

 

Our clothing is made by people who share our values in ethical and sustainable practices. Our collections are an extension of the belief that what you wear should be comfy, beautiful, inclusive, made ethically and with respect to people and planet.
