Quality Products

They focus on elevated design choices and craftsmanship to ensure that their products are long-lasting. Extending a product’s life is the best way to lower its impact. They put a strong focus on quality control to ensure that their products can stand the test of wear and reuse. All styles are fitted, adjusted, and checked in-house to guarantee that fits, silhouettes, and quality standards are met.

Another important factor within this vision are the materials that they use to craft their products. They define both the quality of their products and their impact on the planet, and they recognise that they must consider and prioritise both. This is why, in as much as possible, they use recycled, organic, and certified materials to make their timeless garments and accessories.

They aim to have a stable and consolidated supplier network and prioritise long-term partnerships that make it easier to visit suppliers and manage production. To ensure that fair working conditions are met across all suppliers, they require independent audits to be carried out at their production sites. They only accept internationally recognised standards such as BSCI, SMETA, WRAP, and SA 8000.

This allows them to assess their performance in terms of human rights, international labour standards, health and safety regulations, environmental protection, and business ethics. More than 80% of their production volume is covered by valid audits and they are working towards increasing this to 100% year-on-year.
