AMERICAN APPAREL® RESPECTS OUR PLANET

COMMITTED TO LEADING ETHICAL AND SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES

From our beginning we have been re-imagining and building the future of responsible apparel making.

MADE FROM START TO FINISH

We source the cotton, spin the yarn, knit, dye, and cut the fabric, and sew the clothes. From start to finish, we make apparel with respect for resources, both human and natural. This requires a keen eye on every part of the supply chain, which we can do because we own the vast majority of it. Every water source, every unit of energy, every ergonomic workstation, we hold ourselves accountable for, paying as much attention to what goes into the work as what comes out of it.

RESPONSIBLE APPAREL MAKING

When it comes to responsible apparel making, we don’t just meet standards; we prioritize and respect them deeply. From ensuring fair wages to sourcing sustainably grown cotton and using alternative energy, we’re committed to Making Apparel Better® by respecting how we make apparel, who we make it with, and what we use to make it.
