EARTH DAY

EARTH DAY

In celebration of Earth Day, we're celebrating our commitment to creating an environmentally friendly product.  

F A B R I C S

We use biodegradable, natural fibers, and our favorites utilize industry best practices from growing and harvesting the raw fiber to manufacturing the fabric.  Our favorites: MODAL and TENCEL - two fabrics whose environmental superiority are matched only by their softness and comfort, creating perfect garments for island living.

Our prints are digital which cuts out one of the most hazardous parts of the process, dyeing.  It's no lie that dyeing uses an incredible amount of water and discards it into waterways after use, turning the rivers the season's trendiest colors. 
There are current strides being made to minimize the environmental impact of dyeing, and China in particular is prioritizing a huge reduction in the environmental impact of its garment industry, so it's not all bad news.  But, for now, we love the environmental benefits of digital printing as well as the artistic freedom.

We do our best to minimize fabric waste in the design process and value a beautiful, well-cut garment that you can wear day to night and on all your island adventures.

Your garments are handmade locally, in a lovely, light-filled studio with lots of aloha.  
In the industry, technologies are being utilized for fabric recycling programs and we're incredibly stoked to hint that we're working on putting together our own!  

MAHALO PIHA for supporting a brand that is committed to making sustainable choices.  Together, we can reduce the impact of fashion on our beautiful island home and on a global scale.
