85% of our collections are made in Italy, Portugal and Greece. We have been working closely with most of the manufacturers, many of them family-run, for decades and regularly visit them on site.
"Made in Europe" stands for social justice and unique quality. But also: shorter delivery routes. Thanks to the proximity to our partner companies, our products are largely transported to Germany by road. This enables us to save CO2 emissions and reduce our ecological footprint.
Our fabric suppliers
We source the majority of our sustainable fabrics from companies with whom we have long-standing partnerships and who define international sustainability standards. Together with companies such as Candiani, Deveaux and Riopele, we set benchmarks in terms of sustainability.

CANDIANI
A pronounced enthusiasm for denim is just one of the characteristics of our
characteristics that we share with the traditional weaving mill Candiani. The company from near Milan has been with us since 2006. With decades of expertise, it supplies us with its fabrics, from which 90% of our denim collections are made. It's about more than just exceptionally beautiful denim. Their environmentally friendly production methods significantly reduce water consumption and almost completely dispense with chemicals. All fabrics are biodegradable. This is why Candiani is also considered one of the most sustainable denim weaving mills in the world.
