Conscious Crafting
They said (1) Make them abroad.
(2) Make them as cheaply as you can!
They said (3) you need to keep lots of stock because people want next day delivery!
But I've learnt that (1) this leads to less quality control over what I produce and a higher carbon footprint.
(2) I'm an ethical & sustainable brand so it's important that I make garments that are built to last. With a workforce that's treated right with little or no impact on our fragile environment.
(3) I pay ALL my suppliers upfront. That way no-one goes hungry!
That’s why i’ve made our products with sustainability in mind, and here’s how:
I use:
- The made to order process (no over production here!)
- Reliable and proven construction methods.
- Planet friendly inks.
- A waterless production method to reduce the pollution cause by the fashion industry.
- All garments are printed and cut to size to reduce waste.
- I work with a London based manufacturer who's work force that has an onsite gym, free tea, coffee, water and snacks.
- I use responsibily sourced recycled, recyclable and compostable packaging.
I know that we all have the power to create change and make good choices, so we can all keep doing what we do, for years to come!
