Greener materials for a smaller footprint
We’re committed to giving you more comfort, safety + value from childrens’ clothing, with less of an impact on our planet.
To minimize the negative effects of fertilizers + pesticides on farmland, we use USA grown cotton or other sustainably grown cotton for 100% of the cotton in our apparel.
Safe for your children, our materials are ethically sourced + third-party tested for safety. We’re proud that 100% of the materials used to make our garments are Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX ® Certified.
