Threads: This sewing thread is made of 100% of the celluosic fiber Tencel™. It was dyed according to the strict guidelines of Cradle to Cradle® Gold. Thus, it is 100% biodegradable. It also meets the standards of Oeko- Tex® Standard 100.

circularity.ID Label: The circularity.ID transparently holds the full story of the garment from raw materials to finished product, to identify recycling possibilities. 100% Recycled Polyester.
Care Label: 100% Organic Cotton.
Size Label: The size labels are made from 100% polyester. Due to the very small size of the labels, it will not interfere with the garment’s overall cyclability or recyclability since it is a small percentage of the overall garment composition.
Size matters...
We hope that the measurements in the size chart can help you imagine how the garment will fit you and your style.
All measurements are given in centimeters. These are the measurements of the garment itself.
The perfect and favourite fit may vary by style or personal preference.
If you are between two sizes, what would you prefer?
- Slim fit or figure hugging silhouettes - you may want to choose one size down.
- A loose or relaxed fit- one size up might be a good choice for you.
Shoulder measurement - we measure the shoulder across the back from the point where the shoulder seam meats the top edge of the garment.
Sleeve length - measured from the shoulder seam, down the the top edge of the sleeve to the end of the cuff.
Total length - measured from center between the shoulder and neckline, down to the bottom where the garment ends
