Sustainably and ethically made
Our commitment to sustainable and responsible apparel production
Our apparel is all about celebrating the natural world, it’s wild spaces, and the people who care about it - so it’s been our mission from the start to operate ethically and responsibly. We know our customers share these passions too, so we are transparent about how our apparel is made.
Our materials

Waste not, want not
- All of our apparel is made to order, which means that we only print what our customers order. This avoids textile waste from overproducion.
- We don’t hold inventory which means that we never have garments go to waste.
-
On the occasion where production mistakes happen or we receive a return, our garments are repurposed, donated, or recycled (in cases where the garment is unwearable).
- We ship our apparel in post-consumer recycled (PCR) plastic mailers, made from everyday items, like used plastic bags and bottles. This protects your garments while reducing our environmental impact. Like our clothes, we don’t hold inventory, which furter reduces our environmental impact.
