Sustainable Materials

With the fashion and textile industry at the top of the list for pollution as well as being the largest consumers of natural resources, tentree are committed to making products from sustainable materials whilst being fully transparent about their impact.

Tencel - A solution to saving our waters. Tencel is a wood pulp fibre from sustainably and responsibly managed forests that features throughout tentree's seasonal collections, including their signature t-shirts and lightweight clothing. A naturally soft, long lasting and sustainable material, it is also smooth and safe for sensitive skin. Produced in a closed loop chemical process, Tencel is one of the numerous ways the brand is committed to protecting the environment.

Recycled Polyester - Say goodbye to "single use" plastics. Tentree works with companies like REPREVE to collect PET single use drinks bottles and gives them a new life in your wardrobe. Durable and comfortable recycled polyester fibres produce some of the most comfortable materials for wear, such as fleece jumpers and hoodies. What's more, by giving post-consumer waste new life it lessens the need for virgin polyester fibre to be produced from fossil fuels.

Organic Cotton - Totally natural. Organic cotton is grown without harmful pesticides, herbicides and GMO seeds, using 90% less water and reducing CO2 emissions by 45% compared to conventional cotton farms. Organic growing techniques also helps to sequestre carbon from the air into the soil as soil health improves. Organic cotton is safe to wear on sensitive skin and its light and comfortable material leaves you feeling good.

Hemp - A fibre that's been around all along. Hemp uses far less water than conventional cotton and yields far more fibre. As a clothing fibre, it is durable and breathable. By using hemp in their fabrics, tentree are being kinder to soils on our planet

Tree Planting Projects

Buy one plant ten. By Starting a company that plants trees for clothing, rather than the other way around, tentree has created a sustainable business model with which communities are thriving on. The tree planting “projects is can be small or large in scale. Their large scale projects can involve the plantation of over two million trees with the aim of limit erosion along a coastline. The smaller planting projects might involve planting twenty trees in a community space. Regardless of whether the projects are large or small, they are all important. Such planting projects in Cambodia, Mexico, Tanzania (and many more!) has created sustainable jobs where there were none.

The bib design is even better for winter riding. Winter bib tights means you get an extra layer of fabric, often fleece lined, around your kidneys which do a brilliant job of keeping you warm when the weather is cold.
