Up-Rise

Hemp clothing

The priority of comfort and quality is something that a very large proportion of consumers live by. And they are right, because what are you with a T‑shirt that is tightening in the wrong places or a sweater that aggravates the sweating? Unfortunately, this is the case with many fast fashion brands and still, many consumers are caught by the low prices. At Up-rise they have also had enough of this polluting industry. Therefore, the brand chose to work with a very environmentally friendly material: hemp. 

Peter and Nynke founded the brand in 2010 with the aim of designing and manufacturing clothing that is comfortable to wear, of high quality and good for the environment. Today, Up-rise is the brand for hemp clothing.

This brand was included on COSH! thanks to a paid contribution from one of the shops listed below, the brand does not provide sufficient transparent information to be fairly assessed in the COSH! Brand Index.

For production, the brand cooperates with factories that are part of the Fair Wear Foundation. But, we do not know who these producers are and where they are located. COSH! would have liked to have had more transparency about this.

Hemp is considered one of the most durable materials available in the fashion industry. This plant already contains a strong fibrer by nature and no or very few pesticides are used in its production. Besides the use of hemp, they also use organic cotton, lyocell and bamboo in the collections. But we do not know if they are certified.

On the other hand, we do not know if Up-Rise takes actions to improve its environmental impact during the production process of the garments, so we cannot assure that its garments are made respecting the environment.


Most of their garments are made from a blend of hemp and organic cotton. As for biodegradability, hemp and organic cotton are natural fibers that can break down over time in suitable conditions. 

However, we do not have much information about Up-rise’s circularity actions.

We are not aware of Up-rise’s production chain. COSH! would have liked more transparency about where they produce their clothes. COSH! is unable to guarantee that their production chain is short.

Up-rise clothing is mainly made from hemp and organic cotton. From the information provided in their product descriptions, we have seen that their products are not made from animal-derived fabrics.

However, Up-rise does not guarantee that they are a vegan brand.

Hemp and organic cotton garments can be very durable. Both hemp and organic cotton are known for their strength and longevity, which contribute to the overall durability of the fabric.

Above all, hemp fiber is strong and durable, which means that garments made from hemp can have a longer lifespan, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Up-rise is not a transparent brand. On its website it does not provide much information to the consumer. 

COSH! would have liked more transparency in order to be able to better analyse its environmental and ethical practices.
