Mongolian Cashmere

Mongolian Cashmere
Our sustainable Mongolian cashmere, sourced from Inner Mongolia, is renowned for its superior quality. As a member of the Sustainable Fiber Alliance (SFA), we ensure our practices align with the latest sustainable policies. Our cashmere is eco-friendly as it is biodegradable, and the cashmere goats naturally shed their fiber, minimizing environmental impact.

Key aspects of our sustainability include:

Ethical Sourcing: Our deep-rooted cultural and traditional respect for animals ensures ethical treatment of cashmere goats, integral to our sustainable cashmere sourcing.

Environmental Awareness: Our commitment extends to environmental conservation, participating in community-beneficial social activities, and adhering to a strict code of conduct with partners who share our environmental ethos.

Responsible Production: We adhere to international standards for ethical cashmere production, ensuring our materials meet global benchmarks. Our factories undergo rigorous audits like BSCI and SMETA to prevent human rights abuses.

Our denim is available in two colourways, Sky and Celeste, both boasting the OEKO-TEX® certification for its dye and fabrics. Our denim in Sky is made with upcycled materials from leftover fabrics, comprising of 80% organic cotton; 2% elastane; 18% REPREVE polyester, which is recycled from plastic bottles.

The denim in Celeste is made with upcycled materials from leftover fabrics as well, albeit with a different composition—98% organic cotton; 2% elastane. In the process, we are supporting the upcycling of existing organic cotton fabrics, which was initially produced without using toxic chemicals and generally have a low impact on the environment throughout the process.

They aim to provide the next generation of alternative materials to totally oil-based and animal-derived ones. The company and its textile materials are cruelty free and solvent free—all made in Italy and complying to European regulations (REACH).

VEGEA textile is made from 100% organic cotton that is coated with bio compounds from post-wine-making waste called grape marc. Grape marc, which is composed of grape skins, stalks and seeds are normally discarded during wine production. The company collaborates with Italian wineries to receive these raw materials. The production involves no toxic solvents, heavy metals and/or any other dangerous substances for people and planet.

LACTAE HEVEA®
Meet the innovative outsole material that does not use any machineries in the production process, just agile hands. The material is derived from the milk of hevea tree in Southeast Asia. Hevea milk is the latex that flows from hevea tree, after which it will undergo a unique process that involves pouring the milk into outsole-shaped moulds. Next, the mould will be baked for an hour, resulting in a solid yet delicate material to be removed by hand and placed into a puddle of water for it to dry from the heat. In the following day, the drying process continues for another three days, but this time in the drying room where the outsole is laid on a dry, mesh-like surface to filter out the water. The last drying process takes place at a slightly higher temperature. To finalise the outsole production, a microstructure of air bubbles is created. This solidifies the solid state of the outsole from its initial liquid form, and it also provides unparalleled comfort for your feet to be held firmly.

PYRATEX®
PYRATEX® cosmetic fabrics are made with seaweed-based fiber. It has an anti oxidative capacity which eliminates free radicals while caring for the wearer's skin.

The seaweed comes from the Northern Atlantic, and has antioxidant properties certified by European laboratories.

Seaweed is pure and rich in essential substances such as vitamins, trace elements, amino acids and minerals. The skin’s natural moisture level enables an active exchange of these substances, activating cell regeneration, which in turn can help relieve skin diseases, reduce inflammation and soothe itchiness.

Piñatex®

Piñatex®
Leather mass-production is environmentally and socially costly. Animals farmed for leather and/or meat purposes are often treated very harshly and are also responsible for greenhouse gas emissions. Deforestation is also taking place to clear land for the animals to graze. The manufacturing process from the preservation to the finishing of the leather, consumes large quantities of fresh water while emitting dangerous chemical substances when the leather is tanned.

We fell in love with Piñatex® which is a plant fibre fabric with a texture that mirrors the special characteristics we love about leather. Piñatex® is a non-woven fabric made from discarded pineapple leaves. This fabric doesn't require new lands and its raw material is a byproduct from already existing Pineapple plantations in the Philippines. The production of Piñatex® is an optimisation of the pineapple harvesting which brings a greater income to the farmers when allowing them to fully utilise their crops. Due to its strong texture and durability, we see Piñatex® as the perfect option for long lasting products.All Piñatex is dyed with GOTS certified pigments.
