The cotton used is Gots Certified organic cotton, which is grown withput harmful chemicals and uses less water and creates less CO2 than conventional cotton. Up to two.thirds of the enviromental impact of clothing can come from washing and drying, so by using Anti-odor technology we can herl reduce that and also extend the life of your new favourite hoodie.
The fabric for our Hoods comes from an ethical mill in Portugal that is Bluesign and Oeko Tex Standars 100 certified and then they are made by a family run factory in northern Portugal.
Last year we launched our everyday sweats and the cmbination of the super comfortable brushed organic cotton and anti-odor treatment became a bit of a hit, so it made sense to add a hoodie to the range. We wanted to create the perfect classic, simple hoodie. We ised the same cozy, anti-bacterial, organic cotton fabric as our sweats and kept the design as a simple classic. We skipped the pockets found on many hoodies to keep the design minimal and clean, we have plain.
“Can’t take them off!
The Meander Adventure Trousers are my new all-round, go-to trouser of choice - I can’t take them off. They are so comfortable and versatile I need them in every colour. Superb work Meander, thanks for my new favourite trousers :)”
“Good texture, wash well, keeping colour well
Bought some T-shirts for me and my husband. They were all soooo lovely. Thought my husband was looking particularly good yesterday and then noticed it was because he had his meander T-shirt on!”
”So Comfortable!
I bought these as we went into lockdown in the UK, and I don't think there's been a day yet when I haven't worn them for working from home. Possibly the most comfortable trousers I've ever owned. Can't wait to ride to work.....”
