At tiSHōō, every piece is handcrafted with care in their atelier located in the Bohler area, ensuring a personal touch and quality. A special collection has been created in collaboration with the Pani Foundation in Bangladesh, promoting social welfare through employment and a future for children. 

Working Conditions & living wage

The brand prioritizes in-house production, keeping close tabs on the process. They engage with suppliers ensuring ethical practices and have verified GOTS certification for their organic materials, demonstrating a commitment to responsible production and social engagement.
 

Materials

• blend of 30% hemp and 70% lyocell
• 100% organic cotton
• Elastaine
• 100% deadstock silk
• polyamide 

The brand prefers to source materials with transparency from known locations in Lithuania, and certified organic. Employing natural colours, fabrics range froma blend of 30% hemp and 70% lyocell , 100% organic GOTS certified cotton to blends with 5% elastane and 100% silk deadstock, as well as silk and polyamide handprinted deadstock. 

Packaging

For packaging, they opt for biodegradable paper, reducing plastic use.

Water usage & chemicals 

The brand adheres to environmentally friendly dyeing practices in line with GOTS regulations. 
 

Circular product design

The brand focuses on creating garments predominantly from 100% cotton, which is beneficial for both recycling and biodegradability, depending on the use of chemicals. However, they do use many material blends, which would be difficult to recycle at end of use. There is an interest in working exclusively with mono materials to enhance circularity, but cost is a prohibitive factor at present. The use of many single-material items aligns with circular fashion practices

Product design

Each design is tailored to harmonize with the chosen materials, resulting in distinctive, high-quality garments.

Slow fashion processes

The brand tiSHōō embraces the ethos of slow fashion, presenting a limited number of unique designs per collection to prevent overproduction. By offering personalized shopping experiences and focusing on chapters rather than seasonal collections, tiSHōō fosters a deliberate and passionate approach to design, leaving behind the fast-paced norms of the fashion industry. 

While care and maintenance services aren’t detailed, their dedication to timeless pieces and personalized service suggests a commitment to longevity and customer satisfaction.
 

Transparency on product

Each product page and collection details the materials used. On product pages consumers can also find the amount of produced items.

Transparency on processes

tiSHōō has been commendably transparent with COSH!, sharing detailed information about their sourcing facilities, including exact names and locations. Their production process is consciously designed to be limited, reflecting a deliberate approach to fashion that the brand openly communicates. This level of transparency aligns with their commitment to ethical and sustainable practices.
