Our founder Ben Evans said: ‘Our commitment to the environment around us is pivotal to how we operate as a business. It has been well documented how much we dislike existing models within the industry where waste plays a significant part in damaging our environment and encouraging im-proper behaviours of consumers who have unfortunately adopted a throw-away mentality. We believe in a buy once wear forever model for our garments which is why we’ve made the pledge to play our part and to influence the industry to change its ways’
