Who We Are
This whole thing started with a question: How can we do better? Almost 20 years later, we're still asking ourselves the same thing, every single day.
Better means something different than it did in 2006, though. Better now means giving back more than we ever have before. It means changing with the times. It means new silhouettes, new fabrics, exciting new sustainability initiatives, and never settling for the easy route.
From all of us, welcome. We're really happy you're here.
Our Commitment
Eco Made
Where style meets sustainability in every stitch, transforming waste into fashion-forward designs.
Women Owned
It’s more than just a label. We’re shaping industries and breaking barriers.
1% For The Planet
We’re making a difference by giving back to communities and organizations in need and creating a positive social impact.
A Note From Our Owners
We're Teresa and Doug, the majority owner and the founder of Storm Creek. We're Minnesota natives, active outdoorsy people, and, oh, husband and wife.
Doug’s love for skiing evolved into a commitment to designing high-quality outerwear, while Teresa thrives on entrepreneurship and brand building. Our different skill sets unite around a shared vision: to do right by people and the planet.
When we first started out, our very small team set small goals like donating $1,000 to charity and upcycling 1 million plastic bottles. Fast forward to now. We're a much larger team, with a larger-than-life goal of generating $5 million for charity by 2030. And we're halfway there! We’ve upcycled nearly 50 million plastic bottles into long-lasting apparel, all thanks to the incredible support of our customers and community.
Sending our sustainable love from Eagan, MN,
Teresa & Doug
