As a shop dedicated to the imperfect, Mit Ecken und Kanten gives sustainable fashion, natural cosmetics, and home accessories with minor flaws or from past collections a second chance.
„We want to normalise imperfection in the world and foster a deeper appreciation for the environment around us."
The people
A committed team working for change
Behind Mit Ecken und Kanten is a team led by managing director Chris. Colleagues such as Franzi, Natascha, and Anna manage the warehouse, returns, and support, while Waldi looks after brand partnerships. In the shop and customer service, team members like Sarah, Lena, Laura, and Denise provide personal guidance to the community. Together, the group shares the ambition of reshaping perceptions around factory seconds and standing up for the mindful use of resources.
The product
Second chances for special finds
The range encompasses sustainable clothing, natural cosmetics, bags, and home accessories from partners such as ARMEDANGELS and JAN N JUNE. Many of the items have minor cosmetic flaws, come from previous seasons, or have changed packaging. Offered as seconds, discontinued lines, or surplus stock, they are given a new purpose here instead of going to waste. This ensures existing goods enjoy a longer life while avoiding unnecessary waste.
The place
Rooted in Nürnberg
Mit Ecken und Kanten runs its own shop in Hans-Sachs-Gasse in Nürnberg. Here, visitors can examine the imperfect individual pieces in person and try them on. Orders for nationwide dispatch are also fulfilled from this Franconian city. The premises connect the online concept with an approachable physical space in the heart of the city.
