 These two sustainable fashion campaigns have led an industry trend to put an end to planned obsolescence in the industry that causes a needless cycle of consumption and waste. A combination of technology, premium fabrics and old school craftmanship make them built to last a lifetime.
Handmade by craftsmen and seamstresses in rural Portugal using organic cotton. These artisans have ave been making clothing since 1964 and still have sweatshirts made in the late 1970s in excellent condition, so the 30 Year Guarantee is no gimmick.
