- This is an unclaimed profile. ksubi has not joined Sustainability Tracker to verify their sustainability credentials. We gathered what we could from public sources.
Ksubi appears to have had sustainability on its agenda for several years, with its first sustainability plan said to start in 2016. Public material suggests the brand has looked at sourcing and manufacturing choices with the aim of lowering fashion’s environmental impact. However, the available information is thin. There is not much public detail on targets, results, labour standards, or product-level impact. Independent rating sites also show weak transparency. Good On You says Ksubi does not share enough information about its environmental and labour policies and gives it a low overall rating. That means shoppers can see that sustainability is mentioned, but not enough evidence is public to judge progress well. Common Criticisms: Public sentiment is mostly negative or cautious. Trustpilot shows a 1.4 out of 5 rating from 61 reviews, which points to strong customer dissatisfaction, although the comments shown are mainly about sizing and exchange problems rather than sustainability itself. On sustainability, Good On You rates Ksubi “We Avoid” and says the brand does not communicate enough about its environmental and labour policies. That means the main concern is not a proven scandal, but a lack of clear public evidence. Independent rating platforms also suggest the brand is not seen as transparent on people, planet, or animal issues.

Ksubi Sustainability Commitments
2025
Add repair and resale
Ksubi says it plans to introduce or expand repair, resale, and upcycling initiatives by 2025. These are circular fashion ideas that try to keep clothes in use for longer and reduce waste. The public material does not say how large these programs will be or where they will run, so the commitment is clear but the delivery details are still limited.
2025
Build a circular design playbook
The brand says it wants a circular strategy and a design playbook for product designers by 2025. A playbook is a set of rules or steps designers can follow. In this case, it would help them make products that are easier to keep in use, repair, or recycle. The goal suggests Ksubi is trying to make circular design part of normal product development.
2026
Adopt ZDHC standards
Ksubi says it aims to become a signatory of ZDHC by 2026 and adopt the ZDHC MRSL. ZDHC stands for Zero Discharge of Hazardous Chemicals, and MRSL means Manufacturing Restricted Substances List. In plain terms, this is about cutting harmful chemicals from textile production. The brand also says it wants to track more supplier compliance with safer chemical rules.
