Environmental responsibility - Our Customers
The maximum environmental impact of a garment is generally caused by the consumer due to the impact of washing and drying. For the majority of garments, this causes far more environmental impact than either production or disposal.
Our garment care instructions advise consumers as to how they can minimise their own impact and increase the longevity of the garment through proper washing, drying and finally through responsible disposal. We recommend recycling your clothing through TRAID who, in addition to protectong the environment by diverting clothes and shoes from landfill, also helps to reduce world poverty by raising funds for overseas development projects;

As for your Panama Hat, we recommend the compost heap at the bottom of your garden!
