Sustainability

What we actually do, and what we do not.
This page describes what we do. It is not a statement of ambition. Where something is unresolved we have said so rather than leaving it out.

Materials

  • All cotton fleece and jersey is grown and spun within the EU
  • Technical shells use 100% recycled polyester with a PFC-free DWR finish
  • Merino is mulesing-free and traceable to farm group level
  • Denim is woven in Japan on shuttle looms — not recycled content, and we have not found an acceptable recycled equivalent at 13oz

Factories

We work with four factories. Three are in Portugal and audited annually to SA8000. One is in Vietnam, audited to SMETA 4-pillar. We publish the audit dates in the annual review and will send the summaries on request.

Packaging

  • Mailers are 100% recycled LDPE and recyclable where soft plastic collection exists
  • No tissue paper, no cards, no stickers — none of it survives the walk to the bin
  • Hangtags are uncoated recycled board attached with cotton thread rather than plastic

Repairs

We repair anything we made, at cost, indefinitely. Send it in and we will quote before starting. Zips, cuffs, pocket bags and blown seams are the common ones. Re-waxing the chore jacket is free for the first two years.
