Ethical Manufacturing

The apparel supply chain is complex, spanning from raw materials (cotton, merino wool, or synthetic fibers) to finished garments. While some stages are automated, others, like cutting, sewing, and trimming, rely on skilled workers. To manage this complexity ethically and transparently, we maintain a small, tight-knit supply chain with partner factories in Vietnam, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and China. We prioritize long-term relationships with suppliers, considering their interests and those of their workers, alongside our own.

Our Manufacturing Code of Conduct sets minimum requirements for suppliers, ensuring workers are treated with dignity and fairness. We expect suppliers to participate in independent audits and assessments, and we encourage certification from recognized organizations like FLAWRAPAmfori BSCI, and Sedex.

As a Sedex member ourselves, we commit to responsible and sustainable business practices, continually seeking improvement and encouraging suppliers to exceed these standards.
