TechWears was founded in 2014 by Zero Waste enthusiast and ecopreneur, Junkman Drew. Drew has long been fascinated by circuit boards and technology, while also feeling deeply concerned about the environmental impacts of the ever-growing electronic waste stream. After being unable to find a circuit board tie online, he did what any maker would do and constructed one himself! Following a favorable response from his community and friends, Drew decided to quit his job and go all in producing upcycled circuit board ties and jewelry.
