INTRODUCING

Alex's Story

Most truly inspirational brands start by trying to solve a problem. As an avid mountain biker, FINDRA Clothing was created by Alex Feechan in response to the lack of options for cycling clothing for women - and this clothing's lack of sustainability credentials too.

With 25 years' experience of designing for global high-end luxury fashion brands, she understands quality design, fabric, fit and style - while her love of nature and the outdoors are naturally expressed in the products and aesthetic that is FINDRA.

Adventurous Spirit

"It's not about how far you go, or how quick you get there, it's about giving it a go."
