What We’re Reducing
Reexamine goods used from overseas and focus on sourcing materials from US-based companies in order to reduce travel of raw materials and therefore reduce our carbon footprint of inbound good.
How We'll Reduce It
Looking at all materials used in our collection that are manufactured oversees and find like-minded companies in the US that can make a similar or better product, and thus decrease the overall impact of each product from a raw material footprint POV.
