Sustainability

Fashion production comprises 10% of total carbon emissions. Purchasing clothing that consists of high-quality fabrics increases the longevity of your wardrobe while reducing carbon emissions. While sustainability is important, fair wages and labor are of equal importance. The Bureau of International Labor Affairs concluded in a 2022 report that the following countries/areas exploit child labor or forced labor when producing cotton:

Argentina, Azerbaijan, Benin Brazil, Burkina Faso, China, Egypt, India, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Mali, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Zambia, & India.

Before working with a manufacturer or production company, we thoroughly research each company and ask questions regarding their sustainability and labor practices. This ensures that we work with an ethically sourced company while you receive products made with sustainable resources and fair labor practices. 

Organically grown cotton has significantly less impact on carbon emission in contrast to conventionally grown cotton. Organically grown cotton does NOT include nitrous dioxide-releasing fertilizers and pesticides and uses fewer mechanized farming practices. With your continuing support, we strive to source and manufacture all products and accessories locally.
