We've chosen shirts and caps that are as eco-friendly as possible. The apparel industry in one of the most polluting and resource hungry on the planet. From using pesticides in the production of cotton to releasing toxic dye into waterways, the industry has a lot to answer for when it comes to environmental damage. We've selected shirts made from raw cotton sourced from Australia and the USA, two countries that are highly regulated and produce high quality long stable cotton. The benefit of high quality cotton is that it produces longer lasting garments. The fabric is died using Cold Pad Batch Dyeing (CPB) Technology which uses 80% less water than conventional vat dyeing. To remove all shrinkage from the finished shirts, the fabric is cut and washed before producing garments using a laundry that produces and uses eco-friendly detergents made completely from plants. Finally they are packaged in bags made from cassava starch that are 100% compostable.
