Who Made This?
Troficolor - Fabric Supplier
A factory specialized in denim that is focusing in recycled and organic products.
Moodledoodle - Sewing Partner
A small family-owned factory where the workforce is 100% female. Visiting them is always a please and the icing on the cake is to meet Cristina, the extraordinary multitasker that manages everything.
Classwash - Dying Partner
Our garments are dyed at this facility with GOTS certification and a water treament facility to ensure the water PH is balanced and ready to be treated in the waste water facility.
Is Cotton Bad for the Environment?
We're going to be honest here. Cotton production is awful for the environment, but let's face it, nothing produces in this quantity is going to be good.
When using cotton we try to use it either recycled, deadstock or, if we really need it, organic. Because using what exists is always going to be better than producing new.
Why Organic?
By not using harmful chemicals, organic cotton means a healthier planet since it reduces the risk of water acidification and eutrophication.
Being mostly rain-fed, savings on water can go up to 79% and almost 60% on emissions, as a big part of cotton growing emissions comes from fertilizers and pesticides used.
How to Care for it?
These Corduroy Trousers are Pre-Shrunk, what does it mean? It means it will not shrink any further. Nevertheless our advise stays the same:
Wash on Cold Temperatures
Always Wash Cold (30º it's not cold , ok?), only things that need to be desinfected need hot water, like sheets and towels or the pajamas you wore when you were very sick. Other than that, keep it cool.
Wash Less
Don't tumble dry - it really ruins your clothes and the environment! Think of air drying as an activism pro-environment!
