Responsible Collection means that the materials used in our products are sourced in an environmentally friendly and socially responsible manner. This often includes using recycled or repurposed materials, which helps reduce waste and minimizes the environmental impact of our products. By choosing items with Responsible Collection, you’re supporting sustainable practices.

Recycled Polyester is made from recycled plastic bottles and other plastic products, which helps divert waste from landfills and oceans. In contrast, regular polyester is made from new, non-recycled materials. By opting for products made with Recycled Polyester, you’re making a more sustainable choice that contributes to reducing plastic waste.

Fair Trade Certification ensures that the products you purchase were made under fair labor conditions. This means that the workers involved in the production were paid a fair wage and worked in safe environments. By choosing Fair Trade Certified products, you’re supporting ethical practices and helping to improve the lives of workers, especially in developing countries.

A Poly-Cotton Blend combines the softness and breathability of cotton with the durability and wrinkle-resistance of polyester. This blend is ideal for comfortable clothing, such as sweatshirts, as it provides a cozy feel while maintaining shape and longevity. It’s a great choice for everyday wear that balances comfort and practicality.

A Brushed Interior refers to a special finishing process that creates a soft, fuzzy texture on the inside of the fabric. This makes the garment feel more comfortable against your skin and adds warmth, making it especially desirable for sweatshirts and cozy apparel. If you’re looking for comfort and warmth, choosing items with a Brushed Interior is a smart choice.

By choosing products that feature Responsible Collection, Recycled Polyester, Fair Trade Certification, Poly-Cotton Blends, and Brushed Interiors, you’re not only investing in high-quality items but also supporting sustainable and ethical practices.
