The Drift Collective

The Drift Collective Recreated Apparel and Handmade Swimwear. Nothing in common. Created in Portsmouth, NH. We hand make every swimwear piece at our shop location in Portsmouth NH.

At Drift we believe that everything that we create should be one of a kind, with an emphasis on creativity, individuality, and sustainability. Our apparel line is sourced from secondhand clothing which we repair and recreate, bringing new value to unwanted basics and forgotten vintage pieces. We’re spelling out that affordable does not have to mean cheap, mass-produced and unethical. Through creat

ing apparel that is as aesthetically cool as it is ethical, we hope to transform our community’s ideas on sustainable fashion.

This summer, we carefully salvaged and deconstructed hundreds of discarded works shirts and button ups. We overdyed and slowly reconstructed each item to create a special collection of one of a kind pieces. Each garment was a labor of love, and we think you will see that in this first capsule collection. We are deeply committed to our mission of bringing new life to textile waste and cant wait to share this project with you. SPECIAL PRE-RELEASE IN-STORE ONLY, this Friday. Coming soon online!

NO MERCY FOR FASCISTS

100% of the proceeds going to Project Relief Maine

Project Relief is a Black immigrant-led mutual aid and racial justice collective based in Maine.

Founded in 2019 by immigrants, they step in where systems fall short—supporting families facing detention, housing insecurity, hunger, and systemic racism.

They are not a charity. They are neighbors helping neighbors, immigrants protecting immigrants, and a community building power together.

Through mutual aid, legal defense, housing support, and food access, they fight for a Maine where everyone—regardless of immigration status—can live with dignity, safety, and freedom.

Would you guess our rent would be more or less?Sometimes people don’t realize just how EXPENSIVE it is to run a small business, so I think it can be interesting to hear real numbers! We’ve been slowly expanding here, which is both really scary and really exciting!
