For us at Reistor, sustainability goes beyond fabrication.
It includes working conditions, building communities, and preserving traditions. We are committed to making a difference as we navigate this journey to be ethical and impactful while continuing to do what we love!
This Earth Day, we want to take a moment to share the meaningful steps we’ve taken in creating a more thoughtful, responsible fashion brand. We're on a journey of continuous improvement, always finding ways to make better, more responsible decisions that will lead to better outcomes for our community and the planet at large.
From sourcing materials to designing every piece, we mindfully consider how to improve and refine our process. In this journey of improvement, every decision is made with care and responsibility. As we look to the future, we remain hopeful about the path of sustainable fashion, convinced that the thoughtful choices we make, both as a brand and as consumers, will leave a lasting, positive impact.
Let’s dive into the core of Reistor’s approach to sustainability and how our values guide us every day.
The Heart of Reistor: Sustainable Fabrics that Tell a Story
Our journey to sustainability starts with the fabrics we choose. We focus on select materials made from natural fibers that use sustainable production processes, each chosen for its eco-friendly impact and longevity.
We rely on these incredible go-to fabrics that effortlessly blend eco-conscious benefits with the ability to create truly chic and beautiful garments.
Hemp: Nature’s Sustainable Fabric
Hemp has been our fabric of choice due to its panache and durability. Hemp requires minimal water and virtually no pesticides to grow, making it the perfect fabric for an eco-friendly wardrobe.
Used for thousands of years, hemp is now making a strong comeback as one of the most sustainable textiles available. Hemp fabric is lightweight, breathable, and incredibly durable. It naturally resists mold and UV damage, making it a sustainable choice that is less harmful to the planet. Hemp garments become softer with each wash, ensuring long-lasting comfort and style for years to come.
100% Organic Cotton
Organic cotton is one of the cornerstones of our collections, promoting sustainability without compromising on comfort or quality. Organic cotton is grown using natural methods like crop rotation, composting, and biological pest control, which help preserve soil health and drastically reduce water consumption. Unlike conventional cotton, which depends on pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, and excessive water use, organic farming nurtures the land while producing high-quality, eco-friendly fiber.
We choose organic cotton because it’s not just better for the planet, it’s also gentler on your skin. Our organic cotton garments are breathable, soft, and comfortable, making them perfect for everyday wear.
Bemberg™ Crepe: The Eco-friendly Luxe
We strive to combine sustainability and luxury by using fabrics like Bemberg™ crepe, the perfect example of this philosophy. Made from regenerated cellulose fibers, Bemberg™ yarn, when woven into crepe, offers the same silky feel and fluid drape as traditional silk but with a lower environmental impact.
Produced in a closed-loop system, Bemberg™ yarn is made from wood pulp that would otherwise go to waste.
The production process recycles water and chemicals, significantly reducing harmful discharges and minimizing environmental harm. This sustainable approach also allows us to create stunning, luxurious fabrics like crepe, perfect for high-quality, beautiful garments.
Tencel™: Soft and Sustainable
Tencel™, is a fiber made from organically sourced wood pulp, and is a testament to how innovation can drive sustainability. Produced in a closed-loop system that recycles water and solvents, Tencel™ is a fabric that is as eco-friendly as it is luxurious. Tencel™ fabric is soft to the touch, highly breathable, and has a silky smooth texture that feels soft against the skin.
We use Tencel™ in a variety of garments, from everyday dresses to versatile separates. It beautifully combines style, comfort, and eco-friendliness, so you can look great while choosing sustainable fashion.
Crafted to Last
Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond fabrics; it guides how we design our clothes. We create timeless, versatile pieces for long-term wear, aiming to break the cycle of disposable fashion and encourage a focus on quality and longevity.
Everlasting Styles
We make clothes that are built to last. Our designs are classic and evergreen so you can wear them year after year. You can easily style our pieces, like flowy dresses, fitted jackets, or basic tops, for all sorts of events, from casual days out to fancy occasions.
We believe buying good quality clothes that last helps cut down on waste and lets you build a wardrobe that fits your style and values. We make our clothes with the environment in mind, hoping you'll choose pieces you'll love and keep for a long time.
Ethical Production: Supporting Fair Practices
At Reistor, we recognize that people are integral to sustainable fashion. We are dedicated to ethical production and partner with manufacturers who uphold the same values for their workforce.
Transparency in Our Supply Chain
Transparency is key to building trust with our customers. We’re committed to sharing our journey with you, whether it’s about the steps we’re taking to reduce our carbon footprint or the challenges we face along the way. We’re always striving to do better.
Conscious Consumerism: Small Steps, Big Impact
Every purchase you make and every garment you wear has the potential to positively impact the planet. At Reistor, we lead the way in sustainability and believe that change begins with us, through mindful choices, responsible design, and a deep respect for the Earth.
Conclusion: Taking Action, Together
This Earth Day, we encourage you to make mindful decisions about what outfits you buy and how you care for them. Choose pieces that you truly love and that will stand the test of time. Whether supporting ethical brands or making small, mindful changes in how we shop, every step counts. At Reistor, we’re committed to doing our part, and we invite you to join our community of like-minded individuals by choosing fashion that’s kind to the environment.
