The Simple Folk produces its organic childrenswear at a GOTS- and OEKO-TEX-certified factory in Portugal that it says runs on solar power and recycles its own well water. The Simple Folk uses a high proportion of GOTS-certified organic cotton, and GOTS covers most production stages, but The Simple Folk does not name the factory, disclose the cotton’s country of origin, or publish a supplier list.

How it was read: Every product listed in The Simple Folk's live catalogue is retrieved and its stated fibre composition read individually, from the The Simple Folk product page, The Simple Folk's own product data and its material labels. A fibre percentage for The Simple Folk is published only when 100% of the The Simple Folk catalogue has been read. Items The Simple Folk sells that carry no clothing textile, such as gift cards, packaging, jewellery and homeware, are excluded from the percentage rather than counted as a pass or a fail.

Why excluded: These are the items The Simple Folk sells that carry no clothing textile to rate: gift cards, packaging and returns kits, jewellery, homeware, toys, body care and checkout line items. The Simple Folk's fibre percentage leaves them out rather than counting them as a pass or a fail.
