What Makes Dorsu Different: Reflecting on Who We Are in 2025

At Dorsu, we’re more than just a fashion brand—we’re a Cambodian-owned and operated company redefining what sustainable fashion can be.

As we look ahead to 2025, we’re reflecting on our identity and what truly sets us apart: our commitment to small-batch craftsmanship, ethical sourcing, and a vision of progress over perfection.

When You Buy Dorsu, You're Supporting Thoughtful Craftsmanship

Dorsu is not your typical "off-the-rack" label. As both a manufacturing house and an independent brand, every piece we create is handmade in small batches by our talented production team in Kampot. Most of our designs are limited to fewer than 200 units, making each item a unique, high-quality piece. While our costs are slightly higher than mass-produced clothing churned out in large factories, this approach allows us to avoid overproduction and dedicate more attention to the craftsmanship, durability, and quality of each garment. It’s a difference you can feel—and it translates to better cost-per-wear (CPW) for you.

Our Materials: Transforming Deadstock into Opportunity
We exclusively use surplus, or "deadstock," fabrics from Cambodia’s supply chain—textiles discarded by larger brands and manufacturers. By giving these materials a second life, we prevent waste while maintaining a commitment to premium quality.

Choosing Dorsu over mainstream fast fashion not only reduces your environmental footprint but also supports a fairer and more transparent fashion system. While we’re not claiming to solve every issue in the fashion industry, your choice to shop with us helps slow down the cycle of overproduction and exploitation.

Progress, Not Perfection
Sustainability is a journey, not a destination. At Dorsu, we focus on small, meaningful actions that contribute to positive change. Collaboration and community engagement are at the heart of what we do because the most impactful solutions come from working together.

No brand can do it all—but by supporting Dorsu, you’re joining us in building a better future for fashion, one step at a time.
