The environmental impacts of fashion items are compared independently based on available public information such as materials, country of origin, design features and environmental certifications. The comparisons are made between similar items in the same clothing category using a consistent methodology. They do not represent any absolute measurement, certification or endorsement. No fashion item is impact-free, but we aim to make it easier to identify lower impact options quickly and easily. We may earn commissions from qualifying purchases. Affiliate commissions do not influence inclusion or ranking.
