2021 ESG report highlights
Check out some highlights from our 2021 ESG report to see the progress we’ve made toward making apparel with respect for the environment, circularity, people, communities, and transparency.
Our anthem
We are the makers
We source the cotton, spin the yarn, knit, dye, and cut the fabric, and sew the clothes. From start to finish, we make apparel with respect for resources, both human and natural. This requires a keen eye on every part of the supply chain, which we can do because we own the vast majority of it. Every water source, every unit of energy, every ergonomic workstation, we hold ourselves accountable for, paying as much attention to what goes into the work as what comes out of it.
Areas of focus
Holding ourselves accountable
When it comes to responsible apparel making, we don’t just meet the standards; we meet and respect them with the utmost priority. From providing fair wages to sourcing sustainably grown cotton to using low carbon energy, we make apparel better by respecting how we make it, with who we make it, and what we use to make it.
