The quality, durability, and recyclability of a garment start with fiber selection, which directly affects its environmental footprint. All our knitwear is made from 100% organic cotton and recycled polyester.

We go beyond certifications by ensuring full traceability throughout our entire value chain, from seed selection to the finished garment. This enables us to confidently verify that our materials are responsibly handled at every stage, fostering close relationships with everyone involved in the process.

By limiting the number of suppliers, building strong relationships with farmers and ginners, and conducting testing, we uphold the commitments we set for ourselves and our partners.

We believe in action over words and collaborate only with partners who share our values of respecting people and the planet.

We source the cotton, spin the yarn, knit, dye, and cut the fabric, and sew the clothes. From start to finish, we make apparel with respect for resources, both human and natural. This requires a keen eye on every part of the supply chain, which we can do because we own the vast majority of it. Every water source, every unit of energy, every ergonomic workstation, we hold ourselves accountable for, paying as much attention to what goes into the work as what comes out of it.

Stanley/Stella has long been at the forefront of sustainability, working to minimize our carbon footprint.

In 2024, we launched an industry-wide decarbonization plan to reduce our carbon emissions by 30% by 2030 across our entire value chain.

Through close partnerships with factories, ginners, and farmers, we're setting a new standard of collaboration to drive meaningful change. Our mission remains to inspire positive change and lead the textile industry toward a more sustainable future.

Our proprietary expertise allows us to source the finest non-GMO, pesticide-free cotton, ensuring that each product embodies the company's values of sustainability, authenticity, and quality.

Our sourcing team and cotton experts are on the field, visiting partner spinning mills, and engaging directly with ginners and cotton farmers to ensure exceptional bale quality and organic integrity, while gaining deeper insights into their realities and needs.

We go beyond GOTS certification to consistently deliver the finest organic cotton to our customers.

Our cotton and garments undergo independent testing to ensure the highest level of integrity and to guarantee superior quality. Our 100% organic cotton offers unrivalled softness and durability, setting a new industry standard for sustainability and quality.

Our strategy has always focused on working with a limited number of suppliers and developing strong, long-term relationships so we can make responsible sourcing a reality.

From the outset, we established robust policies outlining our commitments to human rights and environmental due diligence, making clear the standards we expect our suppliers to adhere to our decarbonization strategy therefore uses a relative target, taking the total absolute emissions and expressing them in relation to the weight of products produced and sold.

Over the years, we have developed several internal tools and mapped and collected site-specific data, laying the groundwork for our ongoing due diligence processes.
