A bluesign® APPROVED product means that the materials used have been certified to meet strict environmental and safety standards. This certification ensures that the manufacturing process is sustainable, focusing on resource efficiency, waste reduction, and safe working conditions. Choosing bluesign® APPROVED products helps support a healthier planet.

NetPlus is made from 100% post-consumer recycled nylon sourced from discarded fishing nets. By using this material, we help reduce ocean pollution and repurpose waste that would otherwise harm marine life. Choosing products made with NetPlus not only supports sustainable practices but also contributes to cleaner oceans.

PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment means that the fabric repels water without using harmful perfluorinated chemicals. This is important because PFCs can be detrimental to both the environment and human health. By choosing PFC-free products, you are making a safer and more eco-friendly choice for your family.

A gusseted crotch is an extra piece of fabric sewn into the crotch area of pants, allowing for greater freedom of movement and comfort. This design is especially beneficial for active kids, as it provides extra flexibility during activities that involve bending, stretching, or running, ensuring they can play freely without restriction.

A UPF rating of 40+ indicates that the fabric blocks at least 97.5% of the sun's harmful UV rays. This level of protection is crucial for kids who spend a lot of time outdoors, as it helps prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage. Choosing clothing with a high UPF rating ensures your child stays safe while enjoying outdoor activities.

Eco-friendly features like bluesign® certification, NetPlus material, and PFC-free treatments do not compromise quality; in fact, they often enhance it. These materials are designed to be durable, comfortable, and safe for both the wearer and the environment. By choosing products with these features, you are investing in high-quality items that are also responsible choices for the planet.
