Sustainable Glossary
We know that no design is 100% sustainable. At Nobody’s Child we strive to make responsible styles that have a lower impact on the planet compared to the conventional alternative.
We want to use our sustainability labels to raise awareness and empower you to make informed choices.
These icons are primarily based on third-party standards and certifications which you can find listed below.

Transitional Cotton
