Hi! I'm the founder of Imprint and I'm so thrilled to be introducing our iOS app today, alongside our all-new site and rebranding. The company was created two years ago as Need, a curated retail and lifestyle concept for men. We've amassed a tremendous amount of users and members and, after expanding internationally in November 2015, felt the need to rebrand, rebuild, and adjust for the future. The result is Imprint, which was just unveiled. And has proven to be popular with our users and friends. (As an idea of how big iOS has been for us, checkout was down for the first hour after launch, whilst iOS was working. In that hour, we came close to beating the company's all-time sales record in a day. And we're only just a few hours in, so it ought to be a good day!) In brief, the app is designed to be a quick, seamless way for people to shop. From Apple Pay to a built-in chatbot/human hybrid concept for on-demand personal styling, we feel we've created something that actually deserves a place on iPhones and iPads around the world. For those of you who want to read more, I wrote about the changes: https://stories.imprintedition.c... And for those who want to try out the app, use the code PRODUCTHUNT for 20% off your order. Enjoy! Matt

@mattalexand well done on a brilliant launch. I am excited to test out the chatbot. Please tell me it has a British sense of humor.

Where do you stand in terms of sweatshops and sourcing the materials used to make the clothes sold on Imprint? Can you provide substantial proof the clothes are not sourced from sweatshops? What constitutes the pricing for each item as per typical retail markup is 25-35% on each item traditionally?

@_jshmllr We aim to work with responsible partners, but, admittedly, we could be much better on this front at Imprint. At Foremost, we control our production and sourcing, so we *know* every detail of the process. (The fabrics are predominantly sourced from within the U.S. and manufactured in fantastic operations in Los Angeles.) We're increasingly wielding more influence as a company, so we're hoping to apply some degree of pressure on the sustainable route. Many, though, are proud American-made brands. Those that aren't frequently have great policies about transparency. In all, though, I wish I had a more satisfactory answer. It's something we're definitely working on, but, no, I can't provide the substantial proof you mention for Imprint. For Foremost, though, I *absolutely* can.

Wow! This is the best thing to come from Edition Collective yet. Amazing design, stellar UX, and best of all an incredible suite of products. I'm all in!
