Sustainability
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do. From carefully selected fabrics and suppliers to minimized transportation and waste, every part of our process is created with long-term responsibility in focus.
All our cotton products are made from GOTS-certified, long-staple organic cotton that uses significantly less water than conventional cotton, and of course no pesticides. We also work with Tencel, a cellulose fiber produced in a closed-loop system that requires a minimum of water and chemicals while creating a strong fabric that maintains softness and durability. Our buttons are made from Corozo – a plant-based alternative to plastic.
In our garments you will not find unnecessary labels, which in addition to often being itchy against the body, only add unnecessary material. Instead, we print all information about sizes, washing instructions, etc. inside the garments.
We work actively to reduce our carbon footprint throughout the chain. All our packaging is made from recycled materials, and we only use second hand furniture in our warehouse and showroom - which is also for sale of course.
Our supply chain is short and transparent. We only produce in Europe to minimize transportation and ensure good working conditions. All our factories are regularly audited based on both environmental and social criteria.
We know we are not perfect, but we are determined to constantly improve and create even better routines.
Factories
Our products are manufactured by carefully selected partners who share our values of quality, transparency and fairness.
Most of our garments – such as T-shirts, sweatshirts, hoodies, shirts, trousers, caps and boxer shorts – are manufactured in the north of Portugal, in the area around Braga/Barcelos. We work with a handful of smaller, specialized factories for different types of garments. We visit them regularly to ensure a safe and positive working environment and to maintain close relationships with the people who make our clothes.
Our socks and hats are manufactured in Gällstad, Sweden, in a facility powered entirely by renewable wind power.
We keep our supply chains as short as possible and coordinate our production to reduce transportation and emissions.
Fabrics
We work exclusively with high-quality, responsibly sourced materials. Our organic cotton is long-fibre GOTS-certified, making it both durable and soft while reducing water consumption and not using any pesticides during production. We also use Tencel, a sustainable fibre made from wood pulp in a closed-loop process that recycles water and solvents.
All buttons are made from Corozo, a natural and renewable material that replaces plastic. Our merino wool is non-mulesing and treated with EXP 4.0, an environmentally friendly treatment that meets the highest ecological standards.
Every material we choose is carefully considered for its environmental and social impact. The goal is simple: timeless garments that last, made with respect for both people and the planet.
