QUALITY TESTING

All of our products are quality tested to rigorous international standards by Intertek, SGS and Bureau Veritas. This means our clothes get put through the wear and tear of everyday life before they even hit the rack. Here’s everything you need to know about our processes.

WHAT'S IT REALLY MADE FROM?

We continuously test the fibre composition of our garments as sometimes, percentages of blends can vary. That way, we can guarantee that what is listed in the product description is exactly what you’re getting, allowing our garments to be properly cared for and last longer.

IS IT HARM FREE?

Our chemical tests ensure nothing nasty ends up in your clothing. We reject any material with high or low pH levels, banned AZO dyes or formaldehyde. Keeping toxicity out of your clothes is a number one priority for us.

IS IT GOING TO LOOK LIKE IT DID ON THE RACK?

Hate the idea of your garment looking a mess after just a few washes? So do we. That’s where dimensional stability testing comes in. This test examines how the structure of a fabric changes with wash and wear, and is one of our most critical tests to ensure garment longevity. We conduct rigorous machine wash, hand wash or dry-cleaning tests depending on the fabrication and end use. 

WILL THE COLOURS FADE?

We want our favourite colours and prints to stay bold and bright – but between work, play and laundering, there can be a lot of elements working against us. That’s why our colour fastness tests are developed to reflect daily life. We check for cross-staining and colour loss in wash cycles using steel balls to emulate real-world abrasion, and we test to make sure dyes don’t transfer onto other clothes or surfaces.
