Choosing our materials consciously

Fibre selection has a considerable impact on how long a garment will last and how easily it can be recycled. This defines a product’s quality and its environmental footprint. By choosing the highest-quality raw materials, there is less need to blend them with other fibres. However, no material is perfect, and there are many trade-offs to be made in finding the best solution. For example, to give our products more stability and longevity, we sometimes need to incorporate synthetic fibres. At all times, we make conscious, carefully weighed decisions about which materials to use.

By focusing on organic cotton and recycled materials, we’re striving to minimise our environmental footprint.”
