Recycled Wool
Crafted by the innovative Manteco mill in Prato, Italy, our recycled wool is woven with 100% certified recycled fibers sourced from pre-loved garments and high-quality wool scraps. It’s manufactured in a low-impact process that preserves heritage techniques.
The finest pre and post-consumer wool garments and fabric scraps are sorted by colour. Using a chemical-free recycling method developed in Prato, the fibers go through a traditional carded spinning process, in which a machine mechanically detangled, cleans, and mixes the fibers.
Good Wool
Good Wool is premium merino wool that is fully traceable to the farm. Sourced from responsible wool growers in Tasmania and South America and woven by an eco-conscious mill in Italy, this is wool that is consciously manufactured from start to finish.
The Tollegno 1900 mill, where Good Wool is woven, sources wool from farms that can prove that the animals in their care are well provided for and free from discomfort or harm. In addition, these farms practice strict land management and environmental conservation.
Tollegno 1900 uses energy generated by solar panels and water turbines powered by the Alpine river that runs alongside its walls.

Good Cotton
Less than 1% of the world’s cotton crop is SUPIMA®. Our Supima cotton is American grown on farms like the Boswell farm in California, which practices precision agriculture.
This means that the cotton is farmed with highly efficient and proficient practices to maximize the output and its quality while minimizing inputs.
The Boswell farm follows advanced farming practices that include rotating between cotton and food crops to maintain the health of the land.
The Albini mill in Bergamo, Italy is operated by the fifth generation of the family that founded it. Under their stewardship the mill has overhauled its energy consumption resulting in an annual reduction of 8,000,000 kWh, equivalent to the yearly energy use of 2,700 households. In addition, the mill has cut its annual water used by 46,000m3, enough to fill 18 Olympic size swimming pools.
Good Linen
Good Linen continues the centuries-long tradition of linen as one of the most Earth- conscious fabrics, needing little irrigation, producing minimal waste, and providing natural soil fertilization.
We have a long relationship with Marini—they first developed a stretch linen for us more than 20 years ago.
Airy and light, with excellent stretch and recovery, it’s the quintessential summer fabric.
The Marini mill in Prato, Italy, has been family-owned and operated since 1945 and uses state-of-the-art technology that Marini certifies is compliant with strict EU regulations regarding water purification and chemical management.
