How sustainable is Outfit?
It’s unfortunate that the company is not transparent and a lot of information is missing. That being said, it’s a big positive that it publishes an elaborate list of factories, mills, tanneries and processors in its supply chain. The intentions in Arcadia Group’s Code of Conduct are great, but the company operates in many high-risk countries where there’s a substantial risk of harmful working conditions and the lack of payment of a living wage, especially for migrant workers. Without audit results from independent third parties in an accessible report, there is no proof of a truly fair and sustainable production process.
