Our Sustainability Manifesto
1. Slow Fashion
Our ethos centres around ethical and sustainable practices. As a 'Slow Fashion' brand, we strive to bring you designs that stand the test of time - classic pieces that transcend seasonal trends. Instead of promoting push sales, discounts, or impulsive buying, we invite our customers to build a thoughtful and lasting wardrobe with our high-quality products.
2. Durable Clothing
Superior durability and Sustainability go hand in hand. Our emphasis on high-quality materials and stringent quality control processes ensures that our products last long, offering not just value for money, but also a sustainable option that helps in reducing landfill waste.
3. Reducing Waste
Thanks to our innovative 'Print on Demand' model, each item you order is produced only upon purchase, which eliminates any waste associated with overproduction or excess stock. With us, your fashion choices become a part of a responsible, earth-conscious process.
4. Circular Fashion
To contribute towards a more circular fashion industry, we have instituted a product take-back program across our entire apparel range. Once your garments have served their purpose, simply scan the QR code on the label for instructions to return them to us. These returned products will be recycled and given a new life in future collections.
As testament to our Sustainable development, Archetype Accessories have signed up to the Sustainable Creative Charter. This will enhance our working practice and enhance collaboration with creative solutions to he sustainability issues we face as a society.
