The Best Brands of Sustainable Outdoor Clothing
Rapanui is an Isle of Wight clothing brand, founded by two friends. This is a real ‘outdoorsy’ brand that mostly makes organic cotton t-shirts and thick jumpers (as warm as wool), plus waterproof tops and surfing towels.
For any clothing containing recycled polyester or elastane, launder in a microfibre filter (or just buy the 100% natural fabrics, far simpler!)
Everything is made with renewable energy and sent in zero waste packaging. This brand owns Teemill (a company that produces print-on-demand organic cotton tees and hoodies for small charities to earn income for their cause).
A few items are made from recycled plastic bottles (so launder in a microfiber filter). But it seems to be going more towards natural fibres, with the latest linen collection of tops, shorts and trousers.
Ethically Made Spanish Streetwear
Trendsplant, a streetwear brand born in Spain, has built a strong identity rooted in sustainability, quality, and coastal lifestyle. Since its launch in Alicante, it’s picked up loyal fans across Europe and beyond.
This label blends Mediterranean inspiration with practical everyday wear, drawing in those who love simplicity and natural fabrics. Below, you’ll find the top trends that define Trendsplant and keep people coming back for more.

By keeping its supply chain in Europe, Trendsplant cuts down on transport emissions and supports fair wages for workers.
The iconic elephant logo draws from the founders’ travels and love for wild nature, creating a sense of connection with both the environment and the adventurous spirit of the Mediterranean coast. This inspiration shows up in every collection, from graphic tees to relaxed sweats.
Many pieces in Trendsplant’s roster take cues from classic workwear and rugged outdoor gear. Heavyweight cotton jackets, cargo-inspired trousers, and utilitarian shirts offer both durability and style.
Trendsplant chooses soft, breathable fabrics and relaxed shapes so you can wear their clothes anytime. Lightweight tees and sweaters work through the seasons, and the coastal colours never go out of style.
The vegan sneakers are made from various sustainable and recycled materials, and some are even made from mushrooms!
European brands don’t offer half sizes, which is a bit of a nuisance. As most vegan sneakers are sold online, get feet measured at a shoe shop (or measure your own feet). If you’re a half-size, you’ll have to shop by trial and error!
