Brothers We Stand

United Kingdom

Brothers We Stand is a UK-based online marketplace for men's clothing that brings together more than 400 styles from a range of ethical and sustainable designers. Its selection covers jackets, overshirts, T-shirts, shirts, sweatshirts, knitwear, socks and underwear, with many items made from organic cotton or wool. Each product page lists who made the item and its effect on people and the environment, setting out both strengths and areas still needing work. The team picks labels for design, quality and provenance, looking for brands that know their supply chains and have a social or environmental mission. Good On You rates Brothers We Stand Good overall: Great for planet, and Good for people and animals. It notes that most of the materials are lower-impact, all textile offcuts are recycled, renewable energy is used in parts of the supply chain and plastic packaging is avoided. Its entire final production stage is certified by the Fair Wear Foundation. However, Good On You found no evidence that living wages are paid across most of the supply chain.

Earthkind is an online marketplace that sells sustainable and ethically made clothing and accessories from many labels. Its range includes tops, dresses, knitwear, activewear and accessories from brands such as Boyish Jeans, terrae and COSSAC. Its aim is to make sustainable fashion normal without giving up on style. Earthkind picks the brands it stocks by hand. It tags products by values such as organic, fair labour, vegan, recycled, artisanal, non-toxic, zero waste and supply chain transparency. Shoppers can use these tags to find items that match their priorities. The platform also reminds people that the clothes already in their wardrobe are the most sustainable option. For each order, Earthkind plants a tree through One Tree Planted in countries including the Philippines, Indonesia, India and Vietnam. It is a 1% for the Planet member.
