Our Approach
Our sustainable practices address all aspects of our operations and the full lifecycle of a garment— the fibers and production processes used, how workers are treated, how it gets to the consumer and finally, whether it can be recycled or is forced into landfill.
We take a holistic approach to well-being, using conscious business practices and a culture of caring in the communities throughout our supply chain. We prioritize fair treatment of our workers and aim to minimise waste and water consumption wherever possible throughout the production of each garment.
All of our crochet swimsuits are hand-crocheted and hand-dyed by women located in small rural communities in developing countries. We support these women who cannot go out to work by re-integrating artisanal products into the global market that are manufactured in their homes. We are able to offer better economic opportunities for these groups while expanding the market for handmade artisanal products. Each suit is crocheted in sections and then pieced together in our central factory, the whole suit taking 18 hours by hand to crochet.
