Kuyichi
Want to save the planet in stylish denim instead of red tights and a cape? Kuyichi may be your answer! Their premium denims are dyed with the same indigo used in traditional Japanese denims. Kuyichi is based on two principles: organic fashion uncompromisingly produced using fair trade methods. While their designs are as innovative as their ideology, Kuyichi doesn’t merely extend this philosophy to their clothes; the company provides an organic meal every day for every employee.
Loomstate
Loomstate is one of the best-known among eco-conscious clothiers. They directly manage all stages of manufacturing, from the fabric mills, to the cut and sew facilities and the laundries to ensure all partners are participating in responsible manufacturing processes, including fair labor laws and meeting strict anti-pollution standards. Their jeans are manufactured out of 100% organic cotton sourced from farms in Turkey, Peru, India, Africa and even here in the United States. As for style choices? Let me just say that I’ve already bought out the nearest Barney’s and I’m on the hunt for more.
Mavi
Oh, Mavi, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways! One: You are now offering skinny leg, wide leg AND boot cut styles. My hips thank you. Two: You make some of the best maternity jeans around. Eliza’s bump thanks you. Three: You are constructed out of 100% organic cotton, which means you are green enough to make me want to drop my green on you. Bonus: You are sold in so many places that just about everyone has the opportunity to get their hands on a pair of eco-friendly pair.
With all of these choices in the denim market to soothe my eco-conscious soul while meeting my fashionista fantasies, I’ve got it made. Guess you can just call me Miss Green Jeans from now on…
