Materials
Before the end of 2022 we will be using all Bluesign® approved mills for our fabrics. We already work to use recycled and/or natural materials as much as possible. By 2025 we plan to make 100% of our bags from recycled or natural fabrics.
Packaging
Our current hang-tags and header cards utilize recycled content. The poly-bags that we package the products in for shipping are all compost-able. Our goal is to continue to push to find ways to avoid poly-bags and other single-use plastics throughout our supply chain.
Shipping
There is no doubt that moving product around the world is a large part of the environmental impact of any brand. We try to use ocean shipping as much as possible and consolidate our shipments to as few vessels as possible.
End of Life
Our bags are designed and built to last and should serve for years if not decades. We work with our vendors and customers to repair broken parts as much as possible without scrapping whole bags. The reality is that eventually, all products wear out. We provide discount codes to customers that returned old bags that have reached the end of their life. We deconstruct our end of life products and recycle or re-use as much material as possible.
Restricted Substances
