## Sustainability story

Kids fashion is a dirty business. We've been cleaning it up since 2008. Ethically manufactured start to finish in Canada, our crazy-soft, not-so-basic basics for the whole family are knit, dyed, cut, and sewn here, exclusively from certified sustainable textiles and using only AZO-free dyes. We are proud members of 1% for the Planet and Climate Neutral Certified - ensuring every closet in your house is not only non-toxic, but has zero carbon impact. But most importantly? We're parent, grandparent, and kid approved, ensuring the whole family is dressed in beautiful, high quality, sustainable basics.

Just the best clothes for the planet - born and well made in Canada. 🇨🇦
