Sustainability / Quality Promise

We'd rather tell you exactly how our products are made than call them "eco-friendly." Here's what's true, and what isn't yet.

Made only when you order

Nothing is printed until someone orders it. There's no overproduction, no unsold stock and no warehouse full of shirts nobody wanted, which is where much of the clothing industry's waste comes from.

Printed one at a time

Our print partner prints each shirt digitally, one at a time, instead of using screen printing, which is built for bulk runs. Printing single orders this way uses less water and creates less waste.

Printed close to you

Orders are printed in North America, so most don't have to cross an ocean to reach you.

Packaging

Most orders ship in mailers made from 90–100% post-consumer recycled plastic. Our packaging isn't plastic-free yet; our print partner is working on it, and we'll update this page when that changes.

The t-shirt

Our t-shirts are printed on the Bella+Canvas 3001: combed and ring-spun cotton (heather colors are blended with polyester), 4.2 oz, pre-shrunk and side-seamed, with shoulder-to-shoulder taping. The blank shirts are made in Nicaragua, Mexico, Honduras or the United States.

Our polos, hats, toddler tees and mugs are made to order by the same print partner. Check each product's description for what it's made of.

The people who make it

Our print partner requires its suppliers to follow a code of conduct that prohibits forced labor and child labor, and to comply with local and international labor law.

What we don't claim

Our t-shirts aren't made from certified-organic or recycled materials, and we don't make that claim for anything else we sell. Our packaging isn't plastic-free either. If any of that changes, we'll say so here.
