Life is short; live slowly.
Slow Motion Goods is an ethical fashion and lifestyle company that operates both as a retailer and manufacturer. They design and produce their own in-house fashion line that is sewn locally in Kansas City, while also curating ethically made goods from other small businesses. The company also offers functional plant-powered drinks including nootropics and adaptogens, along with curated music and vinyl records.
The company was previously known as Madi Apparel and operated for 10 years before announcing their closure. Their mission centers around the philosophy that "life is short; live slowly," encouraging customers to take time to appreciate quality, ethically-made products. They created a space where customers could browse fashion, sip functional beverages, and listen to music in a mindful environment.
Slow Motion Goods made an impact by supporting local manufacturing in Kansas City and promoting ethical consumption through their carefully curated product selection. By partnering with other small businesses and focusing on locally-made goods, they contributed to sustainable fashion practices and community economic development. Their approach encouraged consumers to slow down and make more conscious purchasing decisions rather than engaging in fast fashion consumption.
