Last year we celebrated TWOTHIRDS’ tenth birthday! A decade of being the little blue brand by the sea. So it’s no surprise that we find ourselves looking back on this milestone to see what changed in 2020. 

How to spend Christmas with those who love the sea? Some enjoy jumping into freezing cold waves in festive costumes, while others prefer a somewhat cosier option. There are both types of ocean-lovers at TWOTHIRDS, so it seemed only fair to meet in the middle for our new movie!

With the help of our customers, we raised 20,703 euros for WWF Spain during Blue Week. We’re blown away and humbled by the results, which show that more and more people are believing in us and our mission. When we all move together, we stand to make waves. We’re grateful to have a community that does.

We know you’ll want your TWOTHIRDS knits to have a long and wonderful life, which is why we’ve put together a wool care guide. This amazing material has lots going for it, being one of nature’s toughest and warmest fabrics. Here’s what we recommend.

When you pull on a pair of TWOTHIRDS jeans, you’re not only wearing a classic piece of comfort clothing, but a garment that represents everything we stand for. Eco. Ocean. Change.

Organic farms are filled with small explosions of colour. The deep red of the cherries, the purple or bright orange of the carrots among the umber of the earth. Everywhere you look, vitality beams back, with fertile land giving rise to flavorful produce. Here, you can find the roots of change.

Imagine forests breaking onto beaches that slope into water the colour of crystal. Vintage beach chairs line up along the bay while not so far offshore, seals and porpoise roam. Now picture a house overlooking the bay and a man sitting by his window like a patient lighthouse keeper, devoted to his work. This is Sierksdorf, Germany and the man is Lutz Schwenke’s grandfather. 

The quality and sustainability of TWOTHIRDS garments is made possible thanks to a system that results in zero waste. We’ll explain what it means for you, how it works, and why in this post.

When a blue whale is underwater, its skin seems to merge with the sea it lives in. Only the rings of light dancing over its back allow us to see an animal of impossible proportions. As soon as the whale begins to turn itself towards the seafloor and flicks its tail up, the rest of its body will vanish into the blue. It will be a creature between two worlds, not quite here and not quite there until only the trace of its tail is left behind it like an echo. Whales are works of art.

In February, TWOTHIRDS travelled to Morocco. The name is packed with potential, meaning “where the sun sets” in the native Arabic, and to surfers, signposting some of the world’s best lineups. Even so, Morocco still divides opinion. Everybody who had been there already either raved about it, or warned us to stay clear. This made us even more curious as to what we’d find. 

The morning light streams into the street as wheels spin into motion and people move like water. Finding the path of least resistance. Spokes and gears are in conversation, click-clacking their teeth together. As the gradient grows, thighs burn like candles: warmly. We’re cycling again.
