The Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) certification ensures that the wool used in our products is sourced from farms that prioritize animal welfare and sustainable farming practices. When you buy products with the RWS label, you can feel confident that the sheep are treated ethically and that the farming methods are environmentally friendly.

Products with the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certification have been rigorously tested for harmful substances, ensuring they are safe for human health. This means you can wear our textiles without worrying about harmful chemicals, making them a safer choice for you and your family.

Flatlock seams are a type of stitching that creates a smooth, flat seam, reducing bulk and preventing chafing against your skin. This design is particularly beneficial in activewear, as it enhances comfort and allows for a greater range of motion, making it ideal for activities like skiing and snowboarding.

Gusseted underarms feature extra fabric in the underarm area, allowing for more freedom of movement. This design prevents the fabric from pulling or restricting your movements, making it easier to engage in physical activities without feeling constrained, which is especially useful during sports.

Anti-odor technology is designed to prevent or reduce unpleasant smells, particularly from sweat. This feature is especially important in activewear, as it helps keep the fabric smelling fresh even after intense physical activity, ensuring you feel comfortable and confident during your sports sessions.

Choosing clothing with certifications like RWS and OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100, along with features like flatlock seams, gusseted underarms, and anti-odor technology, means you are investing in high-quality, ethically sourced, and comfortable apparel. These elements enhance your overall experience, ensuring you can perform at your best while feeling good about your purchase.
