Why Transparency Matters

In the trades, a tool is only as good as its specifications. We believe your workwear should be held to the same standard of performance and accountability. Most "industrial" hoodies rely on conventional cotton that uses excessive pesticides and thousands of gallons of water. Our Blue-Collar Pride collection pivots away from this waste by utilizing Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certified cotton. This certification isn’t just a badge; it is a rigorous tracking system that ensures the organic status of textiles from harvesting through environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing.

Transparency means knowing that when you wear the "I'm Here Because You Broke It" hoodie, you are wearing a garment that saved 95% more water than standard alternatives. By combining GOTS organic cotton with GRS-certified recycled polyester, we have engineered a mid-weight fabric that resists fading and maintains its shape through years of hard labor in the shop. We do not just claim sustainability; we provide the third-party verification to prove that rugged tradeswear can be ethically produced without sacrificing an ounce of job-site performance.
