Kain & Co.

We want to improve their livelihood through investing in their education, and in doing so, their future.

Kain (pronounced kah-yin) means cloth in Bahasa Malaysia.

Across Southeast Asia, fabrics are used as portraits of heritage, told by generations of craftspeople. Colors, prints and textures—these are part of their stories.

However, as the region adopted Western-centric designs, many local craftspeople have had to either move away from their disciplines or lower their fees just to earn a livi

ng.

This is where our story begins. By applying traditional designs to a modern lifestyle,we can help support craftspeople so they can keep telling their stories .

We strive to not only create an income stream for artisans in Southeast Asia, but also give back 10% of our profits to their communities. We current are partnering with the Hmong tribe in northern Thailand and various indigenous communities in Sarawak, Malaysia.

We combine fabrics with other materials to create unique designs, as well as offer other stylish non-fabric accessories made by artisans.

Join us on this journey.

Beautiful Bali, where our latest sarong drop was handmade. It's one of my favorite places, with its mystical vignettes, warm people and unique culture.

I recently connected with the headmaster at the school in Borneo we help support. He explained how students have had to return to homes in remote villages. There, without internet connection, students can fall behind on studies. To deliver materials, teachers travel for hours, sometimes by boat.

"Now that I bring money home, my husband stopped scolding me so much," said a participant in the Borneo program which make our clutches. The ability to earn is a form of power. That's why equipping women with the ability to earn a paycheck is central to Kain&Co. There are many other benefits to earning a paycheck too, including providing a sense of fulfillment and confidence for the women working and the daughters they raise.
