PRODUCTS & OFFER
Who is your target group?
We are particularly proud when our shirts are worn by people who do their best to make our world a little better. People who are committed to social justice and stand up for it. People who care about sustainability and treat nature fairly. People who stand by their values, even if it means a short-term disadvantage.

In short: people who don't look the other way, but, measured against the current situation, always do their best to improve our world.

sounds like you Excellent! we would be very happy if you decide to wear one of our products to show the world your attitude.
Where are your products produced?
The textile products are currently produced in Portugal under European law and by a GOTS-certified manufacturer.

However, please note that the country of production plays a minor role. It is important that the environment is not harmed and that employees are treated fairly in every respect. Therefore, production in China or Bangladesh is not necessarily environmentally harmful or exploitative. GOTS-certified clothing from critical regions is environmentally friendly and socially responsible in equal measure.
Are your shirts vegan?
Yes, the offered shirts and lifestyle products are free of animal products.

What is the GOTS?

There are so many seals of approval. How do I know I can trust the GOTS?
Here is a counselor.
To what extent do you pay attention to your ecological footprint?
We are of course aware that sustainable production and office equipment is not the only thing that needs to be considered. We therefore select our business partners very carefully. For example, we ship your orders in an environmentally friendly way with DHL GoGreen or have our business account with the ethical Triodos Bank. This works exclusively with sustainable companies that offer added value for people and nature. Even the hosting partner we chose operates its servers with 100% green electricity to neutralize its CO² emissions.
MARKET & COMPETITION
Conventional brands also offer clothing with fair and sustainable seals. What is the difference to yours?
It's difficult to answer that in general. The main difference is probably that you can trust our clothes given by the GOTS certified manufacturer.
The fact is that every company can also create its own product seals. The criteria are self-set and usually adjusted very selfishly. Furthermore, entire marketing departments are often busy shaping their own image in a social and fair way through pseudo-green campaigns and projects. You have to consider that such expensive marketing concepts are often still cheaper than switching the entire value chain to green & fair.

If in doubt, you can ask the following question:
Would you assume that a company would set up its own sustainability label or invest enormous sums in 'greenwashing' if its own products could easily get an independent, well-known certificate?

Here you can find a guide and here a website focused on sustainable purchase advice.

What is the best way to wash my t-shirt?
Turn your t-shirt inside out and wash gently at 30°C.
It is important not to sling the T-shirts, otherwise the pressure will be too strong.

If you spin the shirts at around 600 revolutions, the print will have a 'used look', which also looks pretty cool.

The clothesline is definitely preferable to the dryer!

Due to the elastane content, ironing is not necessary. If you still want to iron it, it is essential to turn it inside out.
What is the best thing to do after the t-shirt comes out of the washing machine wet?
It is best to pull the shirt into shape first. After washing at 30°C, the fibers are nice and loose. As long as the shirt is wet, the fibers are more elastic and can therefore be easily stretched. Please note not to exhaust the whole thing, otherwise the pressure will be attacked.

It is also best if you shake the shirt vigorously and hang it up wet. This will prevent creases.
