Did you know that you’re a part of and contributing to something great when shopping with us? Choosing custom-made clothing is a win-win for both you and our planet. Here’s why:
• We only produce by order and keep no inventory, resulting in less waste and excessive production. A more sustainable production, to put it short.
• Clothes that fit get more wear time, which means you can spend more time looking great in fewer clothes instead of buying lots that don’t fit.
• We take pride in fully owning and operating our facilities, ensuring your clothing is made in a good way.
We’re in it all the way. That means fully owned and operated facilities in Sri Lanka where we get to be a part of and take responsibility for the whole process - from raw materials to finished products. This also ensures well-compensated workers who, let’s be honest, we wouldn’t be anything without.
Nawa's been with us for a long time, since 2004. He's a super-skilled tailor and has significantly impacted our team.
Our Sri Lankan facilities boast a team of exceptionally talented workers who are the driving force behind our exceptional products. Who better to feature than the people who make it all possible?
Meet the tailorsIt’s not until you place your order that we begin to produce it. We don’t hold any unnecessary stocks of unflattering ready-to-wear standard sizes, because why should we? There’s more in it for you and our planet to go custom. You’ll get a garment made simply for you and nobody else. Help us take another step away from unsustainable mass-consumption.
We're a smart company. We believe in transparency and being leaders in innovation and sustainability. We're proud to be 100% carbon-neutral through various projects such as reforestation in Sri Lanka, but we do more than just that. Get to know us on a deeper level and discover the true impact of choosing custom-made clothing.
We’re doing our very best to make sure nothing goes to waste inside our production. That includes both investing in smart equipment that minimizes fabric waste, while also making use of the waste that is inevitable. A perfect example of this is a project we’ve launched where, after the cutting process is finished, leftover fabric waste is donated or sold at an extremely low rate to local families. These families then make use of the fabric by making carpets and rugs. This project is not about any financial interest from our end, but about us wanting to help and support the local communities in any way we possibly can. Due to this circular system, we're assisting local communities as well as creating usage of fabric waste that else would go to waste.
”What we do, may not be on a grand scale, but I believe that we should do our part in any way we can, to make the world a better place. We see on a daily basis how this small initiative changes the lives of the people around us.”
