Made to last
People
This hoodie was cut and sewn in Izmir, Turkey by a GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certified factory. The organic cotton is sourced locally from GOTS certified producers in the region of Izmir. To be certified by GOTS suppliers must meet high social standards.
Planet
Organic cotton helps farmers escape the health risks and financial burden of toxic chemicals involved in conventional cotton production. It also benefits wider communities by maintaining (rather than draining) the local water supply and keeping it clean.
The organic cotton is grown in the province of Izmir in Turkey and is known as Aegean Cotton due to it’s proximity to the Aegean Sea. Aegean cotton is regarded as one of the best quality cottons in the world; characterised by long staple fibres which add strength and softness to jersey fabrics. Making a product that will stand the test of time is an important aspect of producing sustainably.
