Certifications That Actually Matter
Many clothing brands engage in "greenwashing" - using vague claims like "eco-friendly" or "green." Stanley/Stella relies on strict, independent third-party audits instead.
| Certification | What It Audits |
|---|---|
| GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) | Organic fibers + dyes throughout the supply chain |
| Fair Wear Foundation | Fair factory labor, living wages, safe conditions |
| OEKO-TEX Standard 100 | Tests every component for zero harmful toxins |
| PETA-Approved Vegan | 100% vegan manufacturing - no animal-derived materials |
GOTS is the world's highest standard for organic fibers. It regulates the entire process - from pesticide-free harvesting to non-toxic dyes and responsible wastewater management.
Fair Wear Foundation is an independent non-profit that directly audits factories to ensure fair living wages, safe working conditions, and reasonable working hours.
Fabric Construction & Sizing
Stanley/Stella uses 100% combed ring-spun organic cotton throughout their core range. Ring-spinning creates longer, smoother yarn strands, eliminating the fuzzy roughness of cheap carded cotton. Their hoodies and sweatshirts incorporate recycled polyester encased within organic cotton - adding internal loft and shape retention without synthetic fibers touching your skin.
Sizing note for EU customers: Stanley/Stella garments feature a refined, modern European fit - tailored, cleanly proportioned, and shaped to hold wash after wash.
