Keeping our hobbies out of the landfill
At Relaunch Labs, we divert old outdoor equipment and sporting goods from the landfill, taking them from defunct to functional.
We make truly one of a kind items with unique backstories.

Our Story
The Launch of Relaunch Labs: January 2024
Relaunch Labs started because we had old kites in the garage that we knew had to be good for something. It felt wrong to throw away so much good fabric and also something that had so many fun memories attached to it. After making the first few projects, I knew that this was one way I wanted to help make our outdoor hobbies more sustainable in the longterm while also being able to see the fabric from our favorite retired kites on a daily basis.
It wasn't long before I needed more fabric and turned to the fine folks of the kiteboarding world to help out. As of April 2024, we're about 3 months and 20 kites in to this adventure. It's an exciting ride and we can't wait to see where it goes.
I hope you'll join us on this fun project!
