Joining the Permet Fabricant Network opens you up to opportunities to work on Permet’s upcoming garment collections (and digital products and protocols) alongside Permet team. Permet is a public goods experiment building a regenerative garment production ecosystem — driven by ownership and aligned incentives for participants, across the entire garment production value chain. Register below.
IN THIS NEW ECOSYSTEM
CREATORS AND PRODUCERS ARE IN CONTROL
Ecosystem participants have unprecedented access to profit redistribution and new perpetual revenue streams — enabled by verifiable ownership of their work. The never-ending “create to sell” cycle of traditional garment production that victimizes fabricants and the Earth is finally broken. Production processes are programmatically improved on by a global network of fabricants to be more effective and regenerative — with rewards for those who contribute: creating new ways to participate and thrive in the industry. Culture is composable and collaboration is supercharged. Fashion enters the world of open-source collaboration — enabled by immutable creative provenance. Atomic units of creative work now act as “legos” that be remixed and built upon — ushering in a new golden era of cooperation.
Greenwashing is impossible and human-rights violations can’t be obscured.
The garment supply chain is transparent with production process data openly accessible and auditable. On-chain production data helps to verify the environmental and human-rights impacts of garment production — preventing greenwashing and human rights violations. The integration of blockchain technology into garment production is inevitable — and large luxury retailers are already testing out cryptocurrency payments. But blockchain technology can enable so much more than just perpetuating the status quo by allowing consumers to support the existing monolithic systems in new ways.
Permet is working and will continue to work to realize the potential of programmable assets to empower creators and producers — and enable a new paradigm of innovation in an industry that requires disruption, for the sake of humans and the environment alike. As a part of these efforts — we’re also working to expand literacy and access to blockchain technology to enable this fairer future. This is all with the hope that, finally, modern garment production can actualize its fullest potential — with the means of production owned by its participants.

REQUEST FOR PHYSICAL + DIGITAL FABRICANTS
So far, Permet has made strides regarding composable culture and profit redistribution – but this is just the beginning. We’ve received an outpouring of interest and support from potential contributors and backers over the past year — which is why we’re opening up the Permet Atelier for the first time ever to fabricants from our greater community. To us a “fabricant” is anyone who can contribute to the production of garments — or the production of digital products and protocols. As we gear up to launch our in-house collections and accompanying software products and protocols in the coming months — we’d love to have the fabricants in our community join in that process. Permet is actively seeking makers of various types, whether you are running an independent screen printing operation from your garage or are employed as a worker in a garment factory. A non-exhaustive list of skillsets we’re seeking includes: sewing, pattern making, sample crafting, embroidering, product design, 3D design/rendering, graphic design, grading & marking, textile dyeing/weaving, DTG printing, fabric cutting, 3D printing, screen printing, shoe making, print design, jewelry making, product / e-commerce photography, and editorial photography (+ more).
