Follow the footprints of our production processes

Understanding the origin of your apparel is just as important as its design features and quality.

We have set a long-term goal to find out in which countries the individual production phases take place before the final product ends up in our warehouse. From raw materials, through factory production, to the final product. It doesn't matter how far our searches take us, everything we find out, and even what we don't, you will find out right here.

The modern supply chain is fragmented and the conventional 'Made in' label offers only a vague and distorted perspective. It is not always clear in which countries the farms, factories and other facilities where the production processes take place before the product is made are located. In order to trace the entire production odyssey, we communicate directly with our certified manufacturers and suppliers. By tracing the transformation of raw material from a farm to a piece of functional clothing in your wardrobe, we hope to restore its intrinsic value and contribute to building transparent and sustainable production networks.

The more we know, the better decisions we can make and the more we appreciate what we have. We want you to have all the resources that are available so you can make decisions based on truthful and verified information without embellishing reality. It brings us joy if you can be absolutely sure that Isadore is precisely the brand you want to support.

Material production

Raw materials are the starting point of a garment. We follow the production process from the very beginning. From breeding sheep to obtain merino wool with its unique thermoregulating properties, to cotton farms, to the processing of recycled materials used in our jerseys.

Material processing

The second stage of the manufacturing process is the production of the final materials used in the garments. Combing, spinning, winding, dyeing, and finishing are energy, water and chemical-intensive processes, and we strive to continually seek out the most sustainable and efficient methods to create the high-performance materials used in our garments. These include using green energy, recycled water and non-harmful chemicals.

Production of the final product

This is the most complex stage, during which the material is transformed under the hands of tailors and sewing machines into a cycling garment with a specific mission. In addition to sewing, this process includes cutting, washing, ironing and wrapping. In terms of volume, this is the most challenging part of the journey that the final product undergoes.

Certifications

A number of industry-standard certifications are used when assessing the environmental impact of supply chains. Our manufacturers and suppliers use the following to measure their practices, assuring that the materials we select consider the environment and workers' conditions. Allowing us to always provide products with purposeful performance and sustainable style.

Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 guarantees that no chemicals were used in the production process

Bluesign organization eliminates the use of harmful substances in the production chain

Fair Wear improves the lives of workers in the clothing industry

REACH is an EU regulation promoting alternatives to animal testing and aims to replace hazardous substances with safer ones

Higg index measures the environmental impact of a product

TÜV ISO 14001 certification is awarded to organizations with a commitment to the continuous reduction of their environmental impact

Wearing what’s in your wardrobe is the most sustainable choice. We strive to be the second.
