Ethics + Fabrics
The journey from our design to your doorstep
From day one, ethics and sustainability have been at the heart of our business model. We choose low-impact fabrics and production methods whenever possible, and choose to produce in the USA.
Why organic?
Our core fabric is organic cotton made from GOTS-certified yarn, milled and dyed in California. Part of the reason we choose organic is personal preference—we just feel better about putting it against our skin. The other, more urgent reason is that it’s better for the earth. Conventional cotton uses more pesticides than any other single major crop. By choosing organic, we can help preserve the health of our communities and our ecosystems.
This holistic thinking extends to other decisions regarding fabrics. For example, we choose to trim certain styles in pure silk rather than cheaper synthetic blends. We also use fiber-reactive dye to create most of our colors.
Made in the U.S.A.
The benefits of keeping production in the U.S. are many. Besides the obvious—that we don’t have to ship finished product from overseas—making our garments in the U.S. ensures production isn’t contracted out to third-party factories that might not share our ethical and environmental standards.
Shipping and Packaging
When it comes time to ship, we use Eco-Enclose recycled containers and recycled tissue paper. Our goal is to avoid single-use plastics at every turn.
With every choice we make, we strive to balance sustainability with quality. Ultimately, we hope to create a timeless, well-made garment you can treasure for years.
