CASUAL WEAR
One of our broadest categories with an extensive network of supply partners and manufacturing hubs globally. We're proud of the versatility we offer our customers across Jersey, Knits, Sportswear and Casual Wovens.
From luxury Italian fabrics & Portuguese manufacturing to large scale production in Bangladesh, our flexible approach covers all bases for established brands each following their own unique sourcing strategies.
HOW, WHAT & WHERE
We pursue a diversified sourcing strategy across our casual wear, ensuring we bring the best value proposition to our brands. We don't have our own in-house manufacturing facilities which gives us the benefit of flexibility. Our ability to nominate the best supply partners for any given project ensures our approach is tailored to provide the right balance for our partner brands across the usual key metrics: Quality, MOQ, Lead Time & Price.
CIRCULAR DESIGN
Lead by our Circular Design Guide, we conduct a thorough analysis of every product at the start of a project. Every component, from fabrics, trims, accessories and packaging is assessed. Our goal is to minimise the environmental impact of our garments as much as possible, whilst balancing this with the clients commercial requirements.
GARMENT MANUFACTURING
Our casual wear is produced in several countries, with the final production location selected subject to each brand's own needs. Our luxury knitwear is produced in Portugal using EU fabrics; True Knitwear is manufactured in Turkey using yarns originating in Italy; and we our larger scale production runs in Bangladesh using fabrics from China.
MATERIAL SOURCING
Our network of fabric suppliers is vast with knit and woven fabrics coming from our trusted partners in Italy, Portugal, Turkey and China.
We reverse the usual sourcing approach and start by nominating a yarn supplier to then build the fabric supply chain up from there. In this way, we have full visibility and control over the source of materials and chain of custody - ensuring you have full traceability.
COMPLIANCE & ACCREDITATION
We work regularly with a wide variety of accreditations and compliance standards - ranging from environmental, safety and ethical criteria. Here's a summary of the global standards we're working with regularly:
GOTS | BCI | GRS | RWS | SEDEX | BSCI | ACCORD |
