Sustainability & Packaging
We embracing innovation and circularity, including upcycling, recycling, re-commerce/resale and bespoke materials and processes
We Place People First
We place relationships first, treating each other in the workplace environment with kindness, respect and honesty. We aim to work in harmony, helpng one another to achieve the best results while minimizing waste and energy usage wherever possible throughout the entire production process of each garment.
Our Materials
To produce a responsibly made product, we choose each material with intention and care. When sourcing for our designs, we prioritize natural, recycled, and organic fibers and do not use any fur, leather, mulesed sheep wool or feathers.
Since 2014, 100% of our swimwear is produced using ECONYL®, a 100% regenerated recycled nylon fiber made from pre and post-consumer waste and fabric scraps instead of sourcing new nylon. That allows us to recycle waste materials and give them a new life. Check out the styles we have designed using ECONYL®.
We also use recycled polyester for our mens shorts and scarves.
