About our partnerships
Why Partner with BirdieBlue?
We make it EASY to keep old gear out of the garbage: We give your crew an opportunity to sustainably dispose of old, broken, and/or no longer usable ski and snowboard gear in a convenient and transparent way!
Great sustainability promotion opportunity: Upcycling with BirdieBlue and diverting all of these old clothes from the landfill is a great story of how we are all are working together to protect Mother Earth. BirdieBlue would be happy to share document our production process content to share across your social and email channels.
Custom Swag: Want to sport a one of a kind Birdie bag? We provide you with the opportunity to design your own bag unique to your brand, fundraising team, community, corporation, and/or team.
Additional Revenue Stream: If you are open to exploring a co-branded partnership, BirdieBlue will share proceeds from sales of your company’s upcycled bags. It would be an honor to support your programming and mission so do not hesitate to reach out to learn more!
We can’t wait to partner with you. We would love to hear from you.

Fab Scrap
fabscrap.orgFABSCRAP was created to meet New York City’s commercial textile recycling needs. Materials that traditionally would have gone to landfill are now being properly recycled, upcycled, and made available for reuse.
Since Birdie’s founding in 2022, Fab Scrap has been a fabric sourcing and recycling partner. Our BirdieBlue team does everything we can to upcycle and use every bit of the our recycled clothing (have you seen our Birdie Webbing Extenders made from old ski and snow pants waist bands!?). However, in the rare times when we just can’t save every scrap or the insulted lining of ski clothes, we visit our Fab Scrap Friends in Brooklyn. Fab Scrap helps us upcycle these scraps into shoddy, which is then used to make insulation for homes. Super Cool! Learn more here! -
