Used recycled materials

Whenever possible, we make sure that the fabrics we use are recycled and can be easily recycled in the future. Recycled polyester in our swimwear, recycled wool in our knitwear, recycled paper in our shopping bags and online boxes are only some examples.

Kept production close to home

We always source suppliers as close as possible to our warehouse outside Paris. 80% of our production is made in Europe : in France, Portugal and Spain. All production is transported by train or by truck.

For France we work with Colissimo, the subsidiary of the French Post, and for the rest of the world exclusively with DHL.
