Not Sorry Blog

Come boogie with us late night at the Not Sorry flagship store for DIY Funky Ferndale Art Fair! On September 25 from 7-11pm we'll be having an in-store dance party with local house music label, Choose Better Friends Records! Featuring DJ sets from the 4 founders of the label: Bale Defoe, Ryan McCray, DJ Phil Minnick and J Peacock (aka Jess, co-founder of Not Sorry).

In addition to in-store grooves, we'll be doing some gear + record giveaways, live embroidery, and coupons for 1/2 off Brooks Brewing down the street! 

Hope to see you there!

We are very excited to host our dear friend Nate and his awesome streetwear brand INDABAG, in-store at the flagship store Sept 18-19.

Indabag Apparel designs are inspired by nature, negative space, surrealism and geometry.

Stop by on Saturday, September 18 from 3-7 pm for a meet-and-greet with the artist! 

We're having a Plant Swap & Meet at the flagship store! Stop by on Sunday, September 12 from 2-5 pm to meet some plant people!

Below are some visual aids that will help you figure out how to label your plants, a sample plant card (downloadable for use!) and what types of plants are cool to bring!

And here's the plant card you can use to label your plants! We'll have some printed in-store if you need to make some during the event! Right click to download!

We can't wait to see you!

We're so grateful we got the opportunity to sit down with Sadie Quagliotto from Hip in Detroit! Hip in Detroit is a positive space that features the people, places, and things that make the City of Detroit and the surrounding suburbs special. Sadie wrote:

"Clothing and culture are changing. Fast fashion is finally being called out for the waste creating, capitalistic money grabber that it is and people across the board are being called out on their bullshit. Post pandemic, no one is willing to waste a second thinking about what anyone else says about who they are, who they choose to love, what sex they identify as, what size body they are occupying, or how they choose to dress it, and no brand captures this sentiment better than Metro Detroit's Not Sorry Goods."

We were featured in Second Wave Meida's Metromode! Metromode is a digital news magazine focused in the metro area of Michigan! MJ Galbraith wrote:

"With a retail presence in Ferndale’s Rust Belt Market and a production studio at the Ponyride Detroit maker space, Not Sorry Goods made the most out of their shared workspaces. Now the sustainable lifestyle retailer is ready to make another leap forward: Not Sorry Goods is prepping for the grand opening of their flagship store along Woodward Avenue in downtown Ferndale. A celebration is planned from 5 to 9 p.m. on Friday, July 30."

For any confusion, we will still have a booth Rust Belt Market! We are only a couple minutes away from Rust Belt and will still have product available to shop on the weekends. In our new store you can catch new upcycled products in stock and watch clothing being customized and worked on.
