|---|---|
| Excerpt | Is Nudie Jeans a sustainable clothing brand? See the real fibre breakdown, plant, animal or synthetic, before you buy. |
| Feature 1 | Every Nudie Jeans denim garment has been made with 100% certified organic cotton since 2012, a fibre grown without artificial fertilisers, pesticides or genetically modified seeds and rain-fed to large parts, meaning less irrigation and less strain on water-scarce areas. Alongside organic cotton, Nudie Jeans also uses Fairtrade cotton and recycled cotton drawn from fabric suppliers' own waste streams, production waste and old jeans returned through its re-use program. |
| Feature 3 | Repairing jeans has been part of Nudie Jeans since 2007, and the brand offers free repair through its Repair Shops on the principle of repair, not replace. Resale and a recycling and re-use program let Nudie Jeans keep its organic cotton garments in use to create vintage rather than garbage, built on values with sustainability and human rights at the core. |
