From a surgical nurse and certified CPR teacher:

Please pause for 2 minutes and read this:

1. Let’s say it’s 7.25pm and you’re going home (alone of course) after an unusually hard day on the job.

2. You’re really tired, upset and frustrated.

3 Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw. You are only about five km from the hospital nearest your home.

4. Unfortunately you don’t know if you’ll be able to make it that far.

5. You have been trained in CPR, but the guy who taught the course did not tell you how to perform it on yourself.

6. HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness.

7. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again.

8. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.

9. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives!!

10. A cardiologist says If everyone who gets this mail kindly sends it to 10 people, you can bet that we’ll save at least one life.

11. Rather than sending jokes, please... contribute by forwarding this mail which can save a person’s life.

12. If this message comes around you... more than once… please don’t get irritated... You should instead, be happy that you have many friends who care about you & keeps reminding you how to deal with a Heart attack.

What is re-inc?

I think everyone has had this question permeating in their minds even after reading through their website. Here are my thoughts:

Let’s define re- real quick—

re- WORD ORIGIN. a prefix, occurring originally in loanwords from Latin, used with the meaning “again” or “again and again” to indicate repetition, or with the meaning “back” or “backward” to indicate withdrawal or backward motion

Re-imagine. Re-define. Re-think. These are just some of the words the company repeats over and over. Again and again. For a lot of us, especially me, I was very skeptical of how this lifestyle brand could “re-imagine the status quo and society.” How can a clothing brand do that? Especially a clothing brand that is in the same spirit of a hype beast/streetwear brand like Supreme, Off White, Undefeated.

So. What makes Re-Inc. different? Unlike, their more notable and seasoned counterparts, the relatively new brand isn’t trying to stick out a brand. Because that’s not their focus. They don’t want their focus on their company, they want their focus on the people that will wear their brand. Which is why over and over they say that this is created for you (–by Tobin 😉). This brand applies a minimalistic take on self-expression—being vague in order to be able to fitted and matched by many. If you take a look at other brands that seemingly are also minimalistic, they still find a way to stick out and highlight their brand—ultimately taking the focus on themselves, their identity, as opposed to the individual. Let’s take a look shall we?

Supreme Box Logo White T-shirt.

This design, though simple, still begs for your attention with the bright red design of the brand. In a way, it uses simple and minimalistic elements in order to STILL highlight the brand.

Now let’s put that in comparison to the newly released RWB capsule from Re-inc.

Tobin says it herself. The monochromaticity and muteness of color and style allows for the autonomy of self-expression. It allows for more possibilities of being reimagined, redesigned, and redefined. This brand is made to be molded to the person, not necessarily for the person to be molded to it. This is what will make Re-Inc revolutionary. Clothing lines are often brand-centered. But Re-inc is people-centered. They want you to be able to take their pieces and wear them with whatever you have and/or mix and match it with their other pieces. That’s the beauty of its minimalism and its simplicity. Within its simplicity, you can find your own specificity, your design, your individualism—your identity.

Excerpt from Christen Press’ answer to Why did you want to start re-inc?

“I think that especially in our sport, and in many people’s lives in America and this Western philosophy, we see everything as being a slice of a pie, so zero-sum. And so, in that way we’re in direct competition with each other…

And so, actually, we’ve organically come to this idea of working together and, actually instead of working within a pie, creating new pies. Being infinite and expansive.”

Basically what I got from this ‘interview’ was that not only are they trying to reflect their ideologies in their fashion, but in the way they’re going about their business too. Not only do they want to revolutionize the fashion, they want to be able to change the tide of the overwhelmingly capitalistic wave of American/Western business (and this would be through collaboration and whatnot—she mentions this at some other point in that video).

^this right here is what they’re all about. The message in this is exactly why this was one of their first posts when purging their Instagram. They want to emphasize that this brand is for the bodies that will wear these clothes. They want you to know that the power to change the status quo is on us—that we have the autonomy to redefine their wear and create something new. And I’m totally guessing, but I bet, they also want people to be able to push this mindset in our personal lives beyond clothing.

Disclaimer: these are just my thoughts. Please don’t @ me. Lol. 

with love,
