Product Sustainability
We love fashion. And we love our planet.How we display sustainability in the shop
We strive to integrate sustainability factors into all of our decisions. We aim to enable our customers to do the same. For us, this means empowering you to make informed choices by incorporating the environmental and social impacts of products into shopping decisions.
We intend to keep working with our brand partners to increase transparency, and data quality, while simultaneously transitioning our assortment to offer more products with a sustainability focus to our customers.
No product is 100% sustainable. But we believe that many products are a preferred choice compared to their conventional counterparts. We aim to raise awareness for this with our sustainability communication in the shop.
Our aim is to keep evolving and learning from our gained insights, experiences, customer feedback, and the industry. We see sustainability as a continuous journey and want to bring our customers along the way. So, join us on the journey!

Our product-level sustainability symbols
Our sustainability symbols cluster third-party standards, licenses, and certifications of a product's material, production, or social standards throughout the supply chain. Products labeled with one of our sustainability symbols fulfill at least one of our requirements in the form of third-party licensed or certified material or brand-level certification. To make sustainability claims, brands must provide their products’ sustainability information, and be able to provide proof.
