Uses some lower-impact materials

Good On You says the brand uses some lower-impact materials, but it does not publish a full breakdown of what materials it uses. That means outside readers cannot easily see how much of its range is made with better-known lower-impact inputs versus standard ones. The same assessment also says the brand reuses some textile offcuts to reduce waste. Textile offcuts are leftover pieces from production that would otherwise be thrown away.

Set a science-based emissions target

Good On You reports that the brand has set a science-based target to cut greenhouse gas emissions in both its direct operations and its supply chain. A science-based target is a climate goal that follows a method used to match global warming limits. The assessment also says there is no evidence the brand is on track yet, so the target exists but progress is not clearly shown in the public material reviewed.

13

Has a worker grievance channel

Good On You says the brand has an external grievance mechanism for workers in its supply chain. A grievance mechanism is a way for workers to report problems such as harassment or unpaid wages without naming themselves. The same source says the brand’s Code of Conduct covers ILO principles, which are basic labour rules set by the International Labour Organization. This is a formal policy step, but the assessment still finds gaps on living wages and supplier support.

Reuses some animal materials

Good On You says the brand appears to use leather, wool, cashmere, and alpaca, and that some animal-derived materials are recycled or certified alternatives to conventional cashmere. It also says the brand does not appear to use shearling, mohair, or down. The animal welfare policy is described as formal but not aligned with the Five Domains of Animal Welfare, a framework used to judge animal care more fully.
