ABOUT US

BRINGING LOVE AND TELLING THE STORY OF THE 852

This is the city that we love to call home. We're a small-time operation that loves to celebrate the lifestyle we have here. From the beaches to the skyline, we have our little slice of paradise. Originally started in Lantau in 2020 to make fun merch for family and friends, Living852 was created to serve the greater residents of Hong Kong. Everything you see has been influenced by the people, places, and fixtures of the city. We wanted to show the various sides of Hong Kong as its reputation mostly conjures images of cramped streets and a famous skyline. We wanted the quirkiness, outdoors, unrefined and the boujee, the East meets West. We want it all. We want to celebrate it all. Be on the lookout for more apparel to come!

 

 

 

OUR MISSION

Did I mention we’re small? Well, think one person doing everything small. That small. What we set out to do though, was create enough designs that we can appeal to everyone. To do this, we’ve decided on a made-to-order business model, meaning we hold no stock and the item you purchase is only created after you place your order. Some designs may never see the light of day while some may be ordered often (or so we hope). We wanted to create as much of a bespoke experience as possible, offering as many designs, in as many variations as makes sense. This is why we urge you to reach out to us with ideas on existing or new designs. The one downside in how we’ve decided to operate is the lead time to deliver products to your door. Due to the ongoing pandemic, most orders are taking 2-4 weeks to deliver. While this is unfortunate, we will continue to work to shorten fulfillment and delivery timing wherever we can. Much love.

 

 

 

GIVING BACK

We love this city, truly. That’s why we’re doing what we’re doing. The mission was always to give back a portion of sales to charities and causes around Hong Kong and this is our full intention. We’re looking into automated store integrations that will allow donations to various local charities above and beyond our own contributions, but for our part, we’re committed to donating 10% of profits to local charities. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions on our plans, please reach out at (hello@living852shop.com).
