sourcing
trims with thought
AWEAR tries to source all environmentally friendly trims. We use shell buttons on our sweaters. Our drawstrings are 100% cotton with knotted finishings. We will never use metals or anything that harms the environment when tossed out.
eco-conscious threads
Our Modal yarn comes from the responsible company Lenzing. Modal is created from Beech Wood tree pulp sourced from sustainable, low water usage forests in Austria. Our cotton threads are eco due to the fact they are natural and easily break down.
FABRICS SPUN IN CALIFORNIA
AWEAR uses two different types fabrics, a jersey knit and a french terry. Both fabrics are created from a blend of modal and cotton threads. The eco-conscious threads are spun into fabric yardage and dyed/ colored right outside of Los Angeles in a safe and clean factory.
