This brand conducts 100% of its production in Barcelona, this makes the production industry familiar to them and easier to facilitate ethical and sustainable production practices. This also helps them to ensure the highest quality of products possible. It is unclear whether the production is conducted in-house however, and they also don’t mention the locations or names of the material suppliers. This makes us unable to verify the ethical practices down the entire chain.
This brand uses mostly uncertified organic Cotton in their products, which is a more sustainable alternative to conventional cotton and other conventional materials. They also use some Linen, and synthetic fibres such as Elastane. They also have a lot of products using semisynthetic fibre- Viscose, which is made from natural materials.
They also use recycled coconut material for their buttons, which is more sustainable than the conventional alternatives.
The brand mostly uses natural materials which are easily biodegradable, and they also use recycled materials for their buttons also contributing to their circularity. Most of the brand’s garments are monomaterial, which makes them easy to recycle at the end of use. However, there could be more circularity efforts from the brand, especially considering the little amount of use childrens’ clothes get, there’s lots of potential with circularity there, such as adopting a resale model.
The brand is located in Barcelona and production is entirely conducted there as well, keeping the production chain really short. But they don’t mention anything regarding the supplier locations and the method of transport.
This brand does not use any animal products, which makes it completely vegan.

This brand provides transparency regarding the materiality, care tips, and production, however has a long way to go still in many aspects. They need to provide more information regarding whether the production is conducted in-house, the locations of suppliers, their certifications to prove the organic nature of the cotton, chemical use, transport methods, packaging material, etc. Mainly, they need to improve the traceability of their garments so the consumer can verify the sustainability of the products before buying.
