Part-Time Copy Writer
The Company
Kirrin Finch is a conscientious clothing company that creates menswear-inspired apparel designed to fit a range of woman, trans and non-binary folks. The brand began when co-founders, Kelly and Laura Moffat, decided they were no longer willing to settle for ill-fitting menswear and overly frilly womenswear. The duo set out to break down the gender boundaries in fashion and instead focus on making great-fitting clothing that allows people to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.
