Strand offers travel gear discounts as Oxfam promotes sustainable fashion

Retailer Strand is offering discounts of up to 40 per cent on travel essentials, including various luggage options such as the Nere Stori and Nere Venture collections. The Nere Stori range features ABS hard shell suitcases in multiple sizes, including vanity cases and carry-ons, while the Nere Venture line utilizes polycarbonate for increased durability and flexibility.

In the United Kingdom, Oxfam has launched its ‘Second Hand September’ campaign to promote sustainable fashion habits. The initiative follows the ‘State of Style’ report, which indicates that a third of UK wardrobes contain unworn clothing and that many consumers purchase items impulsively due to social media influence. Experts suggest organizing wardrobes in small sections to manage seasonal transitions without relying on fast fashion.
