Materials and certificates - What you need to know about sustainable sweatshirts & hoodies
Since hoodies and sweatshirts are the epitome of comfort, it is particularly important to us that the materials leave no doubt about softness, breathability and skin compatibility. A sustainable material, such as our tried and tested organic cotton, combines these properties and is also ideal for people who live vegan. Because most of our organic cotton garments bear the Peta Vegan Approved Certificate for cruelty-free clothing. What many people don't know: Animal softeners are often used, especially in the finishing of textiles. We consciously avoid them and use vegan alternatives. In addition, a large proportion of our sweatshirts GOTS-certified , which means that they meet the highest standards for ecological and social sustainability. Bright colors with a high radiance are particularly popular, but raise questions about skin compatibility, especially for people with sensitive skin. This is where the GOTS standard comes in: Only those products that are on the GOTS positive list of approved chemicals and chemical additives are permitted. This list can be accessed online on the website of the Global Standard .
