How does print on demand work?

Print-on-Demand (POD) refers to the printing of a product that only takes place when an order is placed. In other words, your garment is printed especially for you. This can take 3-5 days until it is shipped.
With the print-on-demand process, we want to send a message against the fast fashion industry.

What materials are used?

Our modern and durable clothing is made of high-quality materials that have been perfectly sewn and processed. The clothes are made of GOTS-certified organic cotton and recycled materials such as modal or recycled polyester. The type of certification depends on the material composition.

How do I care for the products?

All selected products comply with the standards and requirements of the textile industry in terms of their physical and chemical properties as well as their durability and service life.
Most items should be washed at 30°C and air dried (i.e. not in a tumble dryer).
By following these care instructions, you not only protect the environment, but the products also last longer.
