Oqoqo.com - new use of hemp

oqoqo - change your clothes; change your mind

use of hemp

A local clothing store’s cross-town move worked like a well-oiled machine - minus the oil and machines.

Complete with a three-man bongo team pounding out the beats, a 70-plus person caravan packed up the furniture, clothing, and mannequins from the old Oqoqo location on Robson Street and trekked - on foot - to their flagship location at West 4th and Arbutus.

The truck-less move created quite the scene on the Burrard Street Bridge during the morning rush hour, and was the perfect combination of lululemon’s athletic focus and Oqoqo’s sustainable sensibility, said Kelley Buckley, lululemon’s B.C. regional manager.

The successful Oqoqo clothing line, which includes garments made from sustainable fibres such as soy, bamboo, hemp and organic cotton, will soon be available in all lululemon stores across North America.
