It is the second time I have the opportunity to sit and chat with Aurelien Conty, founder of Mision Misericordia a cool brand (very popular amongst fashionistas) made in Peru with strong social and environmental principles at its core. And it is the second time I get struck, almost paralyzed, by his powerful determination, his courageous ways, his boldness, the will power exuding from the way he expresses himself. Whether he likes it or not, I see him as a true social entrepreneur. I've seen the guys from Misericordia around a few times by now and I get all excited when I meet one. They might be called crazy by some, and they are, in fact, pretty unreasonable for the average business person, for they are driven by a strong will to make the world a better place for life. As they are gifted with astounding skills, they must also face the challenges of pronounced pitfalls. The plight of a genius, I call it. But I love that they exist and admire them without limits.

The reason we consider it “eco” is that you get exactly what you want and therefore are more likely to love it longer.
