Knowing if you’re making environmentally friendly choices can be tricky, especially when it comes to clothes. It’s easy to be seduced by sustainable messaging and greenwashing, but the simple truth is that choosing natural fibres over synthetics can make a big difference in protecting our planet.

Natural fibres, such as pure wool, lambswool, cashmere and cotton can be part of the solution rather than the problem. They are 100% renewable, biodegradable in both land and sea and recyclable. What’s more, they are resistant to stains and odours, are easy to care for and are made to last.
