Sustainability
With a passion for the environment, it is vital that all our products are sustainably made.
Our prints are 100% cotton rag, and the lab that prints them is carbon neutral.
We also contribute a 0.5% of every purchase to the Stripe Climate program, to remove CO2 from our atmosphere. We hope to increase this portion as we grow.
We also hope to donate portions to wildlife conservation funds in the future, but we need your help to get there.
