Sustainability
Slow Fashion
We only use sustainable fabrics in our production and we believe in producing high quality, timeless pieces that are well constructed and built to last for years, not months.
Our designs are made in small batches and not mass produced. By doing this we increase quality and eliminate excess production and waste.
We are all for the proper care and love of your garments so with every purchase you get an Outfyt laundry bag. Don’t forget to use it as it will help you protect your garments in the wash to ensure they have a full lifespan.
ECO LUXE
Our Eco Luxe fabrics feature ECONYL® regenerated nylon which is a regenerated yarn made from pre and post-consumer nylon waste. It is made by recovering nylon waste - such as fishing nets from the oceans and aquaculture, carpet flooring destined for landfill and industrial plastic waste – and turning it into virgin quality nylon yarn. It's exactly the same as brand new nylon and can be recycled, recreated and remoulded again and again.
Blended with LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber, this fabric is designed for durability, resisting fading and maintaining its shape wear after wear. Its advanced technology makes it 10 times more resistant to chlorine, heat, and sunscreen than standard fabrics, ensuring long-lasting fit and performance.
ECO PET
Our Eco PET fabric is made from post-consumer recycled PET bottles, giving new life to plastic waste.
This eco-friendly polyester uses FENC® TOPGREEN® recycled filament, combined with creora® Power Fit spandex for excellent strength, color depth, and heat resistance. The result is a high-performance fabric that maintains its shape and vibrant color.
ECO STRETCH
Our Eco Stretch fabric is crafted from recycled garments and textile scraps, utilizing cutting-edge polyester chemical recycling technology from Zhejiang Jiaren. This high-tech process decomposes waste polyester materials and transforms them into high-quality, multi-functional fibers. Recognized as a leader in textile recycling, Zhejiang Jiaren’s innovative approach helps reduce textile waste while producing durable, versatile fabric.
STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®
It is one of the world's best-known labels for textiles tested for harmful substances. It stands for customer confidence and high product safety.
You can be certain that this textile has been tested for harmful substances and that the article therefore is harmless in human ecological terms.

Global Recycle Standard (GRS)
The GRS is an international, voluntary, full product standard that sets requirements for third-party certification of recycled content, chain of custody, social and environmental practices and chemical restrictions.
The GRS is intended to meet the needs of companies looking to verify the recycled content of their products and to verify responsible social, environmental and chemical practices in their production. The objectives of the GRS are to define requirements to ensure accurate content claims and good working conditions, and that harmful environmental and chemical impacts are minimised.
NATURAL FIBRES
We are also committed to using natural fibres that meet the highest standards of sustainability.
Our hemp & organic cotton, and 100% organic cotton fabrics are certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), ensuring that they are ethically produced and environmentally friendly. Hemp is naturally durable, breathable, and requires minimal water and pesticides, making it one of the most eco-friendly fibers available. GOTS-certified organic cotton is grown without harmful chemicals and ensures social responsibility throughout the supply chain. Together, these fibers offer superior comfort and sustainability, making our pieces as gentle on your skin as they are on the planet.
At Outfyt, we prioritize sustainability in every aspect of our brand, including our packaging. We use Avani bags made from cassava starch, which are non-toxic, sturdy, and fully biodegradable within months. These compostable bags are certified non-GMO, contain zero petroleum-based components, and are even safe for animals to eat and dissolvable in water—ensuring minimal environmental impact.
Additionally, we ship our products using recycled paper mailers, reducing waste and further supporting our commitment to eco-friendly practices.
We only work with trusted manufacturers that have the same sustainable vision as us.
We’re proud to partner with a female-led manufacturer in Indonesia that not only produces high-quality garments but also champions ethical and sustainable practices. The women who sew our clothes are able to work from home, earning a fair wage while caring for their families. The female founder is deeply passionate about animals, going above and beyond by taking care of many stray cats and dogs. She is also committed to sustainability, integrating eco-friendly methods throughout her business. Fabric scraps are repurposed in various ways—donated to businesses that use them for furniture stuffing or insulation, or sewn into dog and cat beds to help provide comfort to stray animals. This partnership aligns perfectly with our commitment to sustainability and ethical practices.
Our fabric manufacturer in Italy is committed to sustainability through innovative practices. They recycle over 61% of water used in production and rely on 100% renewable energy. By self-producing energy and employing advanced waste treatment technologies, they have reduced CO2 emissions and nearly eliminated waste, recycling 99% of materials. Their efforts include green spaces to offset CO2, creating a facility that integrates environmental responsibility at every level. Carvico's dedication extends to ethical practices and transparent environmental data reporting.
Our commitment to sustainability extends to our boutique at 35 Haji Lane
We strive to minimise our environmental impact each day by relying on energy-efficient LED lighting and using email receipts to reduce paper waste. When the store is empty, we switch the air conditioning to half capacity to conserve energy. Additionally, we responsibly clean and sort recyclables into our recycling bin and we use reusable containers for any take-away drinks or food consumed.
