I've been in the fashion world before and didn't see myself returning. Yet, here I am—but not really. Our Units is something else. We strive to have people at the essence of everything we do, not trends, fashion or other small boxes, and it's my first time being driven by a purpose like that. It feels great. As a manager, I get the freedom to create the environment I've always dreamt of, and as a human being, I can be who I truly am. My favourite Plain Units trouser is Riley. They strike a perfect balance between loose and neat, and I wear them almost everywhere.

It's in my genes to give everyone the best possible starting point for an easier everyday life, not least for my colleagues. My strength is my empathy and ability to solve problems, especially those that no one thought could be solved. Finding the right clothes has been a challenge for me for years. I have felt compelled to choose between either comfortable or neat. I can get both by wearing Ash or another pair of trousers from Plain Units. I feel free, relaxed, and presentable whether in an important meeting or the garden with my family. That feeling means I can put my self-awareness on the shelf and use my energy on what I'm passionate about.

I joined Our Units because I fell in love with the vision. I want to do things I really care about that are cool at the same time. Here, I have the perfect combination. We're living out our purpose every day in a simple, fun, and playful way, which is where I get my energy from. That, and people, be it my colleagues at the office or partners. My favourite trousers are Josh. They're both soft and comfortable and make me feel well-dressed, representable, and handsome, and I don't have to suffer to look good.

I like to stand for something in this world—like Naomi 241 Black. With a fit inspired by the 1970s, these trousers represent unconventional thinking, breach of the norm, new movements, and new ways of being human. The reference evokes a feeling of love, equality, and respect in me and a desire to stand up for something bigger than myself. My passion and the meaning behind my work make it easy to do what feels important. I'm not aiming for an A in sustainability but to keep learning and doing things better for humans and our planet. As a Pattern Designer, I care about our human community by embracing the essence of the many bodies and adjusting the details, until it all comes together. Random choices are not my thing.

What would this person appreciate? That's a question I ask myself in all my relationships, and that's how I live our brand value 'understanding'. I'm a salesperson, but most of all, I'm a human and the way we run our business by cherishing, helping and understanding each other resonates deep within me. One of my favourite Five Units styles is Hailey because of its feminine shape and edgy details, whether it's trousers or people highlighting characteristics that always inspires me.

For many years I tried to adapt to fashionable clothes. I wanted to be the kind of person who looked that way, and I had shoes with heels so high I couldn't even walk in them. Now I only hold on to clothes that make me feel like me and express my mood daily. My different trousers from Five Units are my base; they allow me to quickly change my energy and take big steps in life. Every morning it's like a certain pair of trousers is calling to me, even before I open my wardrobe. In Malou, I feel strong, free, and have a sense of masculine energy, which I balance with something feminine or sporty. Malou follows me everywhere, lying on the couch, running to catch the train, walking in nature and meeting with friends, colleagues, and board members.

My energy is lively and cheerful, and I like to move between people and tasks and spread ease. I'm conscious of not cultivating the negative and heavy in life and always choosing the sweet forest path rather than drilling a tunnel through the mountain. As a Designer, I enjoy the balance between structure and creativity and find it mega cool to make relevant products over time. Hailey is one of my personal favourites; Neither too wide nor too narrow and perfectly high at the waist. These trousers make it easy to be me.

As a human being, I am full of positive energy and create solutions on the go. Ease runs in my blood, and I love that my job allows me to use my energy and receive lots of energy from my dear colleagues. From day to day, I choose trousers that match my current energy. It's magical how my relationship with trousers has changed to something natural and playful.

I feel at home here. There's an empathic vibe here and a family-like atmosphere. I also like the entrepreneurial vibe and the appreciation of cultivating balance in life. I'm excited to be a part of our transformation and enormous potential, especially sustainability.

I believe there is a gift in the people who cross our path and in the bumps we meet on our road. Life should be easy and full of experiences and good energy. Kate represents that kind of ease to me. I reach out to these trousers over and over again because they fit the person I am. I need to feel authentically present in my life and my work life, and that's possible at Our Units. We are not a community because we work in the same space, but because we embrace each other and are together as human beings—heart to heart.

I've worked here for many years, and I think the transformation into Our Units has been the best thing that's happened. I feel more relaxed, balanced, and positive than ever before, and I love how we take our time to talk to and understand our customers. The culture shift has been the most challenging to me, but as I'm encouraged to open up and share my feelings, I try to go with the flow, and it feels great every time. My favourite trousers are Kate; they fit perfectly, wash upon wash, and last for many years.

It's my job to be detail-oriented, and that's healthy for a person like me. I want to do so many things in life, and it isn't the best to take proper time for it all. One thing is that I know all the trousers in detail, something completely different is the feeling of wearing them; In Alba, I feel safe—it's like wearing something familiar. There is huge satisfaction in being a part of a company that strives for genuine values and long-lasting products. The responsibility that comes along inspires me.

Recently my daughter gave me a card saying how happy she was that I work for a company that appreciates me as the person I am just as much as she does. To be seen and meet people as human beings mean the world to me; even in my sales job, trousers come second. I never bring our collection to the first meeting with a client. Trousers are best when they fit so well that we don't think about them. That kind of well-being is good for our self-esteem and makes our appearance grounded. Putting on a pair of Malou make me feel that way, safe and ready for the day and the people I'm about to share it with.

To me, jeans like Kate represent something solid and durable, which gets better with patina and personal touch. Wearing them gives me a sense of being valid and womanly. My legs look longer, and I feel free to take the steps I want at work and in my spare time. Creating good and valid products is a main source of energy to me, and as a passionate designer, I care about clothing that last, suit humans and make us thrive in our lives. That kind of clothing is just as essential as water, food, and a roof over your head.

Calm, simplistic, and honest—I guess those words describe my approach to life very well. It's natural for me to bring myself to work as a whole person, not just a team member, and how we support and know each other means the world to me. It makes me feel safe, and I want to take more chances, learn new stuff, and challenge my routines. For a long time, tight jeans were my one and only, now I love my black Malou. Wearing them, I feel relaxed, a little more feminine, and dressed according to my age.

I am an enthusiastic person who loves to create meaningful results and bridge the gap between our brand and consumers through inspiring, simple, and purpose-driven solutions. This often happens when I, together with my colleagues, with ease and humor, have achieved small and significant results or simply found the angle on the one story we have been working hard on. Then, I become filled with joy and gratitude - and a bubbling feeling of being able to conquer the world with and in our trousers. On both good and bad days, Malou and Dena support me, and regardless of how I feel, my trousers from Our Units inspire me to be myself.

One of my core qualities is to listen. I enjoy meeting new people to figure out who they are and what makes them happy. I figured this out when I evaluated what parts of my previous job made me stay for such a long time. I love how inviting people are when giving them the time and space to tell their story and that way find out their needs. My best days are when I’m productive, to get things done is satisfying. Not just by delivering a solution but also by seeing how it is valued and appreciated by others. Also, a good mood is contagious so doing things with a positive vibe is a win-win. I dress based on how I feel and love how all our trousers have great comfort and provide huge freedom in their composition. I can move freely when my trousers can handle what life throws at me.
