ALL WE REMEMBER
United States
ALL WE REMEMBER is a US collective that makes clothing and accessories in relaxed, gender-inclusive cuts with drawstring waists. Its tagline is future | nature | forms. The brand does not call itself sustainable because it believes full sustainability is not possible in today's society. Instead, it describes its approach as taking responsibility. It works only with natural materials that biodegrade. These include organic cotton for fabric, thread and trims, buttons made from corozo, and dyes from plants. Its partners include American cut-and-sew factories, Certified B Corporations, GOTS-certified mills and local botanical dyers, and it publishes a list of them. Labels and packaging are recyclable or compostable. It produces in small batches, runs a repair program and upcycles or composts production leftovers. Good On You rates ALL WE REMEMBER Great overall. It notes a high share of lower-impact materials, low-impact dyes and production close to home. On labour, it audits all of its final production stage, but Good On You finds no evidence that it ensures living wages.

THTC
United Kingdom
THTC is a UK streetwear brand that makes organic hemp T-shirts, hoodies, socks, caps and tank tops for men and women, including unisex styles. Its premium-weight hemp T-shirts carry graphic designs. Good On You notes that THTC also makes white-label ranges for charities, NGOs and other organisations. Good On You rates THTC Good overall: Good for planet, Good for people and Great for animals. Most of its materials are lower-impact, including organic hemp. Renewable energy powers its own offices and stores, though not its suppliers, and the brand ships without plastic packaging. Its Code of Conduct covers the ILO's four fundamental freedoms, and the whole final production stage is audited. Part of the supply chain is GOTS certified. Good On You found no evidence of living wages. The brand states that its whole range is vegan.

Coco & Kandy
Bulgaria
Coco & Kandy is a Bulgarian brand that makes resort wear and wardrobe staples for women. The range includes dresses, tops, T-shirts and swimwear with clean, minimalist lines. The brand designs its pieces to work both at the beach and in the city. It draws on Mediterranean style as well as Californian and Australian coastal looks. The brand says it uses only responsibly sourced natural fabrics. It aims to make clothing that lasts longer than a single season, and it describes itself as committed to slow fashion. Good On You rates Coco & Kandy Good overall. Its planet score is Good: the brand limits production runs, manufactures close to home and uses recyclable packaging, though it does not publish a breakdown of its materials. Its people and animals scores are It's a Start. The brand traces most of its supply chain and visits suppliers. However, Good On You found no evidence of a living wage commitment or an animal welfare policy, and notes the brand uses wool and cashmere.

Artknit Studios
Italy
Artknit Studios is an Italian knitwear label for women and men. Its range covers sweaters, cardigans, coats, jackets, skirts, trousers and accessories, made from natural fibres such as merino wool, cashmere, organic cotton and linen. The brand has stores in Milan, Rome and Biella and has run pop-up shops in Paris. Production is handled by 16 small and medium-sized Italian makers, many of them family-run. Pieces are made in small quantities and on a just-in-time basis so that unsold stock does not pile up. Every product page includes a Digital Product Passport that follows the piece from fibre to finished garment and shows its Life Cycle Assessment data and material certifications. In 2025 the brand added RWS-certified wool and GOTS-certified organic cotton, and it repaired 103 pieces. Good On You rates Artknit Studios Good overall: Great for planet, Good for people and Good for animals. It reports that the brand traces most of its supply chain, sources wool from non-mulesed sheep and uses recyclable packaging. Good On You also notes it found no evidence that living wages are paid across the supply chain.

The Ethical Silk Company
Ireland
The Ethical Silk Company makes mulberry silk sleepwear, loungewear and accessories for women and men. The range includes pyjamas, robes, slips, camisole sets, tops, scarves, eye masks and pillowcases. The brand began in Dublin and also has a presence in the UK and the US. The brand uses only peace silk, also called Ahimsa silk. With this method the silk is taken from the cocoon only after the moth has left, so the silkworm is not killed. Its silk comes from a family business in India led by Rajaiah Kusuma. The team says it knows its suppliers in north and south India and visits them regularly. It describes its supply chain as simple and transparent, and it focuses on fair treatment of workers and on clothing that lasts. Good On You rates the brand Good overall. It scores 4 out of 5 for planet, 3 for people and 4 for animals. Good On You notes limited production runs, efforts to reduce packaging and rainwater capture in the supply chain. It also notes there is no evidence of living wages or emissions reductions.
