NAADAM Co-Founder, Matt Scanlan Talks The Economy Of Comfort And The Future Of Direct-To-Consumer Brands
Founded by college friends Diederik Rijsemus and Matt Scanlan, NAADAM, a responsibly sourced men’s and women’s luxury knitwear brand, launched in 2013. Their travels to remote parts of the Mongolian Gobi Desert and seeing the issues of developing materials from around the world became the inspiration for the brand. 
Tumblr media

“We became friends with the local herders and saw first-hand how traditional cashmere traders and brokers drive up prices and take the profits,” explains Scanlan. “We turned from our start in non-profit work to buying raw cashmere from nomadic herders in the Gobi Desert in order to stabilize incomes and sell luxury cashmere sweaters at fair prices.” 
Since their inception, NAADAM has been rooted in sustainability with a mission to source and produce the world’s finest fibers while simultaneously preserving the values and lives of their native herders. Sticking close to their non-profit roots, the brand even launched an NGO to support microeconomic development in the region through vaccination programs and local infrastructure investments.
NAADAM has a very strong digital presence. But they aren’t simply a direct-to-consumer brand. 
“We were in wholesale from the beginning,” Scanlan tells me. “The thesis was to have a diversified distribution mix to reduce our risk. We private label, have e-commerce, and wholesale. Then two years ago we introduced retail.”  While retail has taken a hit with the brand’s stores in New York City for obvious reasons, it hasn’t affected the rest of NAADAM’s channels and they still have plans for a 4th quarter push for new locations. “We haven’t seen one category take down the rest. In fact, we are widening our customer base and exploring selling a commodity product through QVC and HSN to continue to diversify.”

Diversity doesn’t just apply to NAADAM’s business model. It also applies to their customer base. “Our customer isn’t just the millennial and it never was,” explains Scanlan. “Our brand was built in middle America. Our customers are single moms, stay at home moms, and dads.”
When I ask Scanlan how the pandemic has affected the brand he tells me that the day-to-day operations haven’t changed much and that his team of 80 are adjusting nicely to working from home. “Generally, the group has been doing well, we have made it clear that HR related changes are not part of our on-going strategy, so that at the very least our team does not feel the pressures of pending financial insecurity.” That’s code for everyone is keeping their jobs.
NAADAM has even seen an uptick across the board, with the biggest increase coming through e-commerce. “We are up 200% above where we would normally be,” says Scanlan. “But, we have been running out of inventory. We design for a year out and then we track it. The demand for our product is high, but if we haven’t planned for it we can’t sustain it. We are very grateful to be in the position we are in. But there are a lot of unknowns currently.”

One of the reasons Scanlan and Rijsemus feel their brand is fairing better than others is because it serves the economy of comfort consumers are seeking both in general and even more so with our “new normal”. 
“In light of the pandemic, we’re already positioned to benefit from the residual effects of larger trends in consumer preferences such as sustainability and health & wellness,” explains Scanlan. “People have been given more information to make more informed consumer choices and thus feel more empowered than ever to take control of their own wellness and well-being in all aspects. That’s from what you eat, to how you work out, how you supplement your wellness, how you take care of your mental health and ultimately in NAADAM’s case, how you dress. I am buying lounge pants, hoodies, blue light glasses, and I am even on a skincare routine, which is pretty out of character for me.”
The pandemic also has created other shifts in consumer behavior. “Fashion has shifted from structured items like stiff jeans or suits to more comfortable and cozy pieces including athleisure, loungewear and more comfortable pieces in general,” Scanlan tells me. “Other CPG categories including bedding, home decor and skincare, all of which fall within ‘self-care’ have also become top-of-mind purchases for consumers around the country since they’re spending more time at home.  This change in behavior has positioned some products for success and others for major difficulties. We are in the fortunate position that our products have matched consumer demand for low-cost, high-quality loungewear.”

NAADAM works with a vertically integrated network or suppliers most of which are in China. Fortunately, most of them are back online.
“These manufacturers provide nimbleness and transparency, which has allowed us to maintain and even speed up our production launch schedule during this time,” shares Scanlan.  When I ask him if foresees any backlash from consumers who choose not to support brands with materials and manufacturing based in China, Scanlan tells me, “25% of the world’s goods are manufactured in China and even more across all of Asia. I think consumers understand and appreciate the value of goods produced in this part of the world. We don’t expect backlash from it at this point and believe strongly in the relationships and partnerships we have developed globally to produce quality product at accessible prices.”
Scanlan approaches business from a unique perspective. Prior to NAADAM, he spent several years at a venture capital firm. “It was my first gig out of college. I worked on a healthcare portfolio. The only thing I learned in that time was that is that I didn’t want to do that for the rest of my life. The experience got me searching for more,” Scanlan tells me. After launching NAADAM, he got back into investing into other brands—specifically direct-to-consumer brands through his fund, Magic Hour, with partner Jake Sargent including True Botanicals, Buffy, Minna, Necessaire, Clare and more. 
“It wasn’t until co-founding NAADAM that I really understood early stage investing,” shares Scanlan. “After moving into that role formally, investing in early stage business was a seemingly obvious transition. I spent so much time working alongside other founders that providing objective feedback, coupled with strategic capital, was very logical and matched an evolving start-up finance skillset.”

With being both a founder and an investor, I ask Scanlan what the future holds for D2C brands that are looking to cut costs and reallocate resources where they can due to the pandemic. Scanlan responds. “It’s about crafting proactive strategies for recovery and future growth. This pandemic will force brands to reevaluate their business models, identify vulnerabilities to strengthen, and build for the future. I think we’ll see brands being a lot leaner in general, in terms of overhead spending, marketing budgets, for instance, and hone in more on product.” 
When I ask Scanlan if he had any tips for other D2C brands to navigate the pandemic he explains to me that flexibility and nimbleness are the keys. “The more unnecessary overhead that businesses are carrying, the harder it will be to adapt to changing circumstances. Extending cash flow will be crucial. Growth, hiring, and awareness marketing are cost centers that generally will need to be reassessed. Financial discipline is absolutely going to be foundational to businesses that weather the storm and emerge unscathed.”

Garments needs to perform, look and feel better than ever
In an interview, Rohit Aggarwal, President, Huntsman Textile Effects with Chemical Today Magazine points out that consumers are increasingly looking for textiles that are not only sustainable but which provide comfort and the performance levels required for an active lifestyle. This has been the driving force for the company.
By Debarati Das  
Global textile trends influencing the textile chemicals business.
Several forces are reshaping the global textile industry. Consumers today are demanding a cleaner and more transparent textile supply chain, which puts pressure on brands and retailers and, ultimately, on the mills that serve them. Regulatory authorities in India, China and elsewhere have also been introducing tougher environmental legislation and stricter enforcement policies for several years.
The economic environment is also more challenging. The global textile industry is now more competitive than ever. Brands have slimmer budgets and tighter delivery schedules, but they need fabrics that combine excellent performance and good looks to satisfy a more demanding market. At the same time, mills are facing rising wages and higher energy and transportation costs, plus price volatility in cotton and raw materials.
As economies develop, consumers have increased disposable income and more active lifestyles. China will be a key market in this regard, with government efforts to boost grassroots participation in sports helping to create demand for sporting apparel.
Today’s consumer looks for versatile clothing. For the outdoor apparel industry, this means creating garments that perform well and look and feel good. And with a multitude of brands competing in the sector, consumers have more choice at more price points than ever before.
Sportswear consumers demand clothing with rain-, stain- and soil-resistant effects and anti-bacterial and anti-odor properties. They want clothing to keep them cool, to protect them from the sun, and to help them perform at their best. Fabrics must also be comfortable and long lasting – breathable and soft to the touch, with colours that stay true and won’t fade with frequent washing or exposure to the sun or pool chemicals.
Technology advancements in the textile chemicals business.
Innovation has always been absolutely critical to the growth and sustainability of the Huntsman business. While many in our industry are cutting back, we are investing more in dyes, smart processes, intelligent effects and digital inks. Huntsman Textile Effects today holds around 700 patents and some 25 percent of our products are less than five years old. We consistently invest around 5 percent of turnover in research and technology and more than half of our projects are related to environmental sustainability.
Crucially, we believe in delivering innovation with purpose. Our world faces great challenges: population growth, climate change, food and water scarcity, and energy management. In Asia, the world’s most diverse and dynamic region, these issues impact our daily lives in real ways. People here are eager to find solutions and chemicals have a key role to play in this quest.
At Textile Effects, we enrich lives through innovation and developing products that not only create value for our stakeholders today but also make a vibrant world possible for future generations.
Some of our key products include AVITERA® SE dyes that save energy and water. AVITERA® is the first para-chloro-aniline (PCA) free reactive dye range. AVITERA® SE dyes ensure rapid and very high exhaustion for cotton and other cellulosic fibres and their blends. More of the dye is absorbed by the fabric, using less salt with less than 7 percent of the absorbed dye remaining unfixed, compared to between 15 percent and 30 percent of conventional reactive dyes.
We also have the most comprehensive range of non-fluorinated durable water repellents with High IQ Repel products that offer solutions for every performance need:
Everyday: smart and economical eco-friendly protection against everyday stains for school, casual, athleisure and business wear.
Outdoor: durable and eco-friendly protection for outdoor clothing that excels in all weather.
Extreme: Extreme protection so that mountaineers, skiers and other adventurers stay warm, dry and comfortable, even in the most severe environments.
Products under HIGH IQ® Repel are part of a brand assurance scheme to help mills, brands and retailers meet global demand for eco-friendly apparel with rain and stain protection.
Huntsman Textile Effects also has a suite of digital ink solutions to meet growing demand for fast fashion. Our digital printing technologies allow mills to print an almost unlimited array of colours and complex patterns in short runs through a very clean process that minimises waste and substantially reduces water and energy consumption.
Opportunity for textile chemicals in developing countries.
Demand for textiles is growing globally, fueled by population growth and rising household incomes. Asia will remain the global epicentre of textile manufacturing, with India, China and Bangladesh dominating. Countries like India and China continue to dominate the textile industry. China still accounts for large domestic consumption as a result of rising affluence and it also exports a large amount to developed economies.
Similarly, India has developed into a large market for textile chemicals owing to the domestic production and export of cotton and synthetic fibres. However, costs continue to rise in these markets, with higher wages and regulatory costs and more expensive raw materials, and competitive South-east Asian nations are gaining ground.
The role of textile chemicals for manufacturing better textiles.
Consumers are increasingly looking for textiles that are not only sustainable but which provide comfort and the performance levels required for an active lifestyle. These demands will continue to drive innovation in the development of products designed to meet multiple requirements. We also help brands differentiate to capitalise on changing consumer preferences with technologies that support the creation of innovative textile products with intelligent effects such as durable water repellency and built-in freshness and sun protection.
As a key supplier in the global textile value chain, Huntsman Textile Effects is committed to helping our customers and the industry overcomes these challenges and creates cleaner and more efficient and transparent supply chains. To do this, we focus on sustainability, innovation and collaboration in everything that we do.
We help mills enhance profitability through process improvements and innovative state-of-the-art dyes, chemicals and inks that reduce water and energy consumption and improve productivity. We work closely with brands to meet the requirements of their Restricted Substances Lists (RSLs) and contribute to greater transparency in their sustainability reports.
Huntsman’s textile business in India.
Huntsman has been active on the Indian subcontinent for more than 25 years. We have more than 1,000 associates in the region. Textile Effects has a manufacturing plant in Baroda in the state of Gujarat.
We have offices across India and headquarters for the India sub-continent in Mumbai, which houses four Huntsman divisions under one roof to help drive creativity, collaboration and growth for the India subcontinent.
The textile effects team includes more than 100 technical staff in the state-of-the-art laboratory and research facilities. Many of the products and innovations created here are unique to the subcontinent's needs.
Our strategy for growth in India and the wider Asia Pacific is to focus on sustainability, innovation and collaboration. We are currently realigning our regional operations to bring decision-making closer to the customer and improve cross-functional synergy to react more quickly to evolving customer and market requirements.
Huntsman’s business plans in Asia Pacific
Huntsman Textile Effects has an established presence in countries such as India and China. We are also present in the developing markets of Bangladesh and Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam.
Asia remains the epicentre of the textile industry and our focus will continue to be on products that meet multiple requirements, including vibrant and lasting colour, high light fastness, rain and stain management, lasting whites and overall comfort.
The textile industry is heavily reliant on fresh water and much of the water mills use ends up contaminated by salt and other pollutants. This is more serious in countries like India and Bangladesh that are already vulnerable to water shortages. Stricter control of water is increasing as governments consider plans to address water issues.
As an industry leader and trailblazer, Huntsman is committed to collaboration in India and our other markets to help address this challenge, which we see as a pressing one for the textile sector.
Huntsman’s focus on R&D on textile chemicals.
At Huntsman Textile Effects, our focus is on helping customers take advantage of changing consumer preferences and rising demand for performance effects. We have the most comprehensive range of products and services that deliver on performance and end-use requirements across the apparel, home and technical textiles market segments and the digital printing sector.
Whether producing high-fashion garments, practical work attire and active sportswear or reliable technical textiles, our customers demand highly versatile, comfortable, colourful and durable materials that look and feel good. Across all of these key segments, Mills also need to adhere to the Restricted Substance Lists of the world’s most demanding brands, while also saving water and energy and reducing production time to further lower costs. Regulators are also more strictly enforcing environmental laws, with mill closures and restrictions contributing to raw material price volatility.
We see these demands and challenges as providing opportunities to our customers and our company. Our products and process improvements help mills and brands enhance profitability and stand out in their markets while meeting the strictest industry standards and regulations. We believe that sustainability and market growth can and must proceed in tandem, and this is what we deliver. This not only helps our customers achieve sustainable growth but also raises standards across the textile industry.
Innovations from Textile Effects
AVITERA® is the first para-chloro-aniline (PCA) free reactive dye range. AVITERA® SE dyes ensure rapid and very high exhaustion for cotton and other cellulosic fibres and their blends. More of the dye is absorbed by the fabric, using less salt with less than 7 percent of the absorbed dye remaining unfixed, compared to between 15 percent and 30 percent of conventional reactive dyes. The unfixed dye is also easier to remove at lower washing-off temperatures, as it is not bound to the fabric fibres in a high-salt solution.
As a result, processing mills can dramatically increase productivity, since the dyeing and washing-off cycles are substantially shorter, while also making significant savings. Less water and salt are required and energy consumption and CO2 emission are greatly reduced because water used in the dyeing and washing-off process does not exceed 60°C.
Huntsman’s Durable Water Repellents (DWR)
Huntsman Textile Effects’ innovate DWR finishes are combined with its unparalleled technical support and application know-how.
Bringing high water repellency to cellulosic and cellulosic-based fabrics, Huntsman’s PHOBOTEX® RCO finish provides durable eco-friendly protection against everyday stains and is ideal for casual wear, athleisure wear and school wear. PHOBOTEX® RCO finishing also contributes to mill efficiency, with good running properties that help ensure smooth production. Furthermore, it is an environment-friendly non-fluorinated solution that does not contain any formaldehyde or blocked isocyanates.
PHOBOTEX® RCO water repellent finishing is part of a broad portfolio of non-fluorinated DWR products that meet the performance requirements of the HIGH IQ® Repel program. All the HIGH IQ® Repel finishes offer excellent protection against rain while remaining breathable, comfortable and soft to the touch. The Huntsman DWR solutions also repel stains so that garments look clean and new for longer, with an improved stain release for easy spot-cleaning and durability through many laundry cycles.
Areas of focus for future growth.
In technical textiles, for example, our future focus will remain on combining performance and durability to deliver quality medical barrier fabrics, carpet, curtains, work-wear, automotive liners and interiors, wipes, roofing substrates and flame barrier products. The challenge here is to meet stringent industry standards and regulations for the adequate protection and restricted substances, while also delivering functionality, comfort and durability in a cost-effective way.
Our advances include flame-retardant PYROVATEX® and the PHOBOL® range of short-chain C6 chemistry for stain management and durable repellency against liquid chemicals.
Growing market segments for textile dyes and chemicals.

A number of global brands are already adopting our sustainable products in their range. In the coming year, we expect to see more leading brands in the sports and leisure sector investing even more in sustainability.
Challenges preventing a market growth of textile chemicals.
The textile industry is heavily reliant on water and with increasing industry and government regulation, coupled with water scarcity, is a major challenge for the textile industry. This is particularly critical in countries like India and Bangladesh that are already vulnerable to water shortages. Stricter control of water is increasing as governments consider plans to address national water issues and pollution control. We are also now seeing more stringent expectations for water usage. The ZDHC Wastewater Guidelines released late last year, for example, will help our industry improve water quality by providing a harmonised set of wastewater parameters, test methods and limit values.
We see these demands and challenges as providing opportunities to our customers and our company. Our products and process improvements help mills and brands enhance profitability and stand out in their markets while meeting the strictest industry standards and regulations. We believe that sustainability and market growth can and must proceed in tandem, and this is what we deliver. This not only helps our customers achieve sustainable growth but also raises standards across the textile industry.
