At Curious Creatures, we know where our products come from, the damage they create, and where they go in return. We choose to work with the best manufacturers that support innovation in renewable energy and treat their workers right.
Step One: Fabric
The vast majority of our materials come from Bluesign® approved fabric mills that Curious Creatures has visited in person and vetted first hand. This ensures we minimize the chemical and environmental impact of our fabrics.
We use recycled fabrics whenever possible and focus on durability, repairability, and versatility in our designs.
We also love using natural fabrics. We enjoy the ineffable comfort and feeling of plants over plastic when we can.
Step Two: Putting it Together
The entire Fall 26 & Spring 27 collection was built in a Fair Trade Certified Factory. Fair Trade is a global movement and certification system designed to help farmers, workers, and artisans in developing countries achieve safer working conditions, fair pay, and sustainable livelihoods.
Our graphic Art Tees are printed just down the street in Bozeman and we sew the patched on our hats locally as well. Whenever possible we try to keep it local and support other small businesses.
Step Three: Give Back
We’re proud members of 1% for the Planet. That means every year, we give 1% of our sales to environmental nonprofits, no matter how the year goes.
We make gear for people who spend time outside, so it feels right to put money back into the places that gear gets used.
Tiny Soap Box Moment
After working in the industry for over 20 years and visiting countless cut & sew factories, from high fashion luxury price points to entry level price points for box store customers, we can say first hand that when brands focus on bringing cost down, the first people to suffer are the ones making the clothes.
Bringing to market low-cost price point goods largely affects the (mostly women, mostly people of color) who work at these factories in both the US and overseas.
When you invest in high quality gear you are also sending a message that craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and workers welfare is important.
Stay Freaky,
Natasha Woodworth, Founder
