MAPLE LEAF SCORE
Organic Cotton
Just like with your food, organic is where it’s at for fabrics, too. Organic cotton means that no pesticides, insecticides, genetically modified crops, or mechanised farming practices (A.K.A. all the stuff that shouldn’t belong in making our clothes anyway) were used to grow the cotton. Just how it should be.
Zero Pesticides
Organic cotton also uses 91% less water than traditional cotton to be grown, reduces levels of water pollution by 98% as compared to conventional cotton, and creates 46% fewer greenhouse gas emissions. It’s kind of a big deal.
Recycled Polyester
Recycled polyester looks and feels just like the regular stuff, but is hella better for the planet.How? It diverts plastic from landfills, prevents plastic from ending up in waterways and harming marine life, produces less greenhouse gas emissions during production and processing, and reduces reliance on petroleum as a raw material.
Looking Sharp
"Throw our sweatshirt on over a tee and add some chinos and sneakers and you've got the whole casual cool vibe on lock. It’s nice enough for lunch with the fam, but relaxed enough for some Fortnight with the bros. "
Game on!
Sure, a jersey is a classic sports game staple. But you can also opt for a sweatshirt and jeans for a comfier look, paired with a baseball cap to rep your team.
Just Chillin
A sweatshirt and shorts are an easy-to-wear, off-duty look that you could rock on a day-to-day basis. Finish it off with a pair of white sneakers to mix things up—just don’t spill your coffee.
