We are in full control from beginning to end with every single piece, which also gives us a lot of room and possibilities to have a direct impact on our own production.

Materials

Materials

We go to great lengths to source materials that have as little impact on the environment as possible. Most of our materials are dead stock fabrics (produced and stocked in Europe) or second hand (locally) sourced, that way we use what's already existing rather than going through the process of manufacturing new materials for our sake. When we use newly produced, as well as our dead stock materials, we want them to be manufactured in Europe and certified with preferably both Oeko-tex and GOTS. The respect for the supply chain and the people in it is one of the most important things for us.

We want to keep everything as local as possible. Our labels are all manufactured in Finland, just as our embroidered patches and the print on our t-shirts. Our buttons and zippers are either recycled (plastic collected from the ocean) or sustainably manufactured and when possible we use vintage or upcycled buttons and zippers.

Zero waste

Zero waste

We have a zero waste policy, meaning that we think before we consume. We recycle everything we can, from paper to plastic and textiles to zippers. Bigger fabric scraps are used to make pocket linings, details on other pieces (plackets, pockets, collars etc), hair bows and headwear. Smaller scraps are used as filling for yoga-bolsters (currently only for sale from the Laiska Ebba Factory in Tammisaari).

To save packaging material, we don’t use hang tags on products bought from the online shop and we have skipped the use of packing slips in each order since they are available digitally.
