organic cotton t-shirt

Polarn O Pyret offers Swedish organic children’s clothes. As well as offering sustainable clothes for children, you can take advantage of the PO.P repairs service (just briefly say what the issue is with a photo and the label, and proof of purchase). Their Second Hand Main offers good trade-in prices for items that have grown out, with the ambition that each piece of their clothing is worn by three children.

Organic cotton or hemp children’s clothing is not only more comfortable (and better for children with sensitive skin). But clothes last longer, due to not being treated by chemicals. And also launders safely. For any items containing elastane or synthetic fibres, launder in a microplastics catcher. Also read the post on renting children’s clothing.

For baby clothing, The Lullaby Trust has information on suitable clothing (and bedding) to help prevent crib death.

The cycle of buy, wear, discard is even worse in fast fashion for children, due to rapid growth, which demands constantly updated clothing. This leads to excessive waste, often from synthetic fibres that cause pollution and litter worldwide, due to not biodegrading at end of use.

Toby Tiger also offers a return & earn service, where you can send back outgrown clothes to add to their SuperLooper library, for others to borrow. And you get a voucher for your next purchase (the more clothes you send in, the bigger coupon you receive).

Unlike some clothing stores that ‘give you gifts’ for over-consumption, this is simply helping to reduce fashion waste (return labels are free) and you can send in any clothes, they don’t have to be from Toby Tiger. This helps to create a circular economy, and provide quality clothing for families on a budget, during turbulent financial times.

Mostly items are made from organic cotton, but the circular range often is made from recycled cotton, and many items are reversible to make two outfits from one, and some even expand with the children as they grow, to save money and materials.
