Water

Water is essential to life as well as to the fashion industry. From textile production to garment finishing, water is critical to our supply chain. To meet our responsibility to use water wisely, we’ve set a goal to conserve water across our own operations and stores, while supporting improved water quality outcomes within our supply chain, particularly in water-stressed regions. stressed regions
