Cotton Sweater Stripe - Gray   

This product is made from Organic Cotton.

Organic cotton is superior to conventional cotton. It’s gentle and soft on the skin with a fine-knit texture. Organic Cotton increases biodiversity, mitigates climate change and reduces water contamination. It’s also less energy intensive. Conventional cotton utilises between 3 and 5 times more energy to produce than Organic cotton.

We source our GOTS Certified Organic Cotton from the fields of Turkey where we work with a local Fabric Mill. We’ve optimised our supply chain by making our Organic Cotton products closer to source in neighbouring Bulgaria to reduce carbon footprint.

We believe in our responsibility to each other and to the planet. We believe in making products that are good for you and minimise our impact. This means being conscious of the effect each part of our design and supply chain has on us, others and the planet.

Here’s just a few of the steps we’re taking to produce sustainably to minimise our impact:

• Reduced mileage
• Under-production
• Bio degradable packaging
• Minimal dyes used in packaging
• Using natural or regenerated fibres
• Carbon offset with Trees for Cities
• Using GOTS Certified Organic Cotton
• Eco fabrics (Tencel, Ecovero)

We design all of our styles in our London studios and make them exclusively in Europe with family owned factories that we control.

We’ve designed a smart supply chain that allows us to make high quality styles, quickly and in the right quantity - we don’t over produce and so we never run a sale.

We passionately believe in fairness.

We only work with factories who have the highest ethical standards and have demonstrated a tradition of quality and fairness. This includes offering healthy working conditions, regular hours and fair wages (that are always above minimum wage).

We started Saint and Sofia because we believe in making things that last and making them fairly and sustainably. Our production team visits all of our factories each week to guarantee quality and to meet with our makers. This way, you have the peace of mind that all of our styles are made fairly, properly and so they’ll stand the test of time.
