soulful b goods • bold dents, flawless scratches
We have great news: Meet and greet with our "second love". In this section you will find soul products with dents and scratches that are impatiently waiting to be put into your shopping cart and are fully functional. We are happy that we can now finally offer the soul bottles and accessories in our shop and that they are getting the attention they deserve. You can find out why this is so important to us and what you can expect in this article.
Since the great success of dating apps, we know that true love and magical love at first sight are difficult matters. Perhaps this phenomenon has only existed since Hollywood, perhaps we are all a little too shy or our everyday lives are too busy for the magic of the first encounter. The good news: all relationship guides and couples therapists are now advocating giving love at second sight a chance. The resulting relationships are happier and more resilient in the long term. And besides, people who fall in love at first sight only pay attention to external characteristics. Doesn't sound all that romantic... We can confirm that love at second sight is a special kind of thing. The same goes for our scratchy and dented soulbottles and accessories. These small blemishes can arise during production, during transport or in our warehouse. Despite the visual change, all of our products that we offer in the shop under the heading "second love" want to be equally loyal and functional . Just like their flawless sisters.
love at second sight
Do you want to know why we insist on the love association? We simply can't bring ourselves to talk about second-hand goods, as all of our products are of high quality and produced with care. We want to avoid the association with bargain bins, dumping prices and inferior quality. Instead, functionality and stability are our priority. As you have read, relationships with love at second sight are very suitable for this.
courage to be flawed
What does flaw even mean? Isn't that just in the eye of the beholder? We're talking about small damage to the surface of the soulcup, soulstraw or soulbottle that doesn't affect its functionality in any way . And that's exactly what matters to us. Each of our soul products has been passed through many hands and consumed resources before it arrived here in Berlin. Scratches or not - we want to take the ecological footprint of each product into account. Since we attach great importance to transparency, another point must also find its place here: the issue of profitability. We certainly don't do big business with the "second love" because we give a generous discount on all items. But it would be pretty uneconomical if we didn't even cover our production costs. That would be tantamount to devaluing the entire product and what would we do then? Dispose of it? That conflicts with our purpose. Hence the following offer: We offer you up to 35% off the unique items and you can let your eyes wander for the second love.
don't leave me hanging
For example, there are soulcups drinking cups made of stainless steel that have a few scratches. We overlooked the fact that the cups scratch each other's surfaces when they are put into each other and transported. And since then we have been wrapping them in paper. Learning by doing.
You can also find insulated soulbottles in various colors and designs or from the first, not yet perfectly optimized, generation. We now also offer soulbottles made of glass in 0.6 l or 1.0 l . The bottles and lids have flaws such as scratches, streaks, small bubbles or a wrongly printed motif. There are also very old designs from the collection that we have not offered for a long time but have kept as a backup. These have no flaws whatsoever , apart from a bit of dust. Maybe you'll be lucky and get a long-lost oldie but goldie. With the glass soulbottles, you cannot choose the design, lid and rubber due to small quantities and logistical circumstances. However, we make sure that everything matches in terms of color. So you get a big surprise - and you get those far too rarely. ;) If you order several bottles, we will put together a mix of different designs for you if possible.
also for the future: nobody's perfect
In the future, we're sure to add a few more soul products to our "second love" category. Because mistakes happen, of course (and fortunately?). And then there will be a few uploads one after the other - so keep checking back. But be careful! Get ready for love at second sight!
