At KOMRADS.World, we strive to minimize the impact of our product life cycle as much as possible. We are proud to say that we are pioneers in ethical and sustainable production. It is encouraging to see that more and more brands in Belgium are realizing that production without responsibility is no longer acceptable. The consequences of irresponsible production are devastating. Ghana, one of the poorest countries in the world, is a victim of our overconsumption and fast fashion mentality. Every week, as many as 15 million garments arrive, 40% of which are too damaged or of too poor quality to be resold. “The problems in Ghana are symptomatic of major flaws in how we, as a society, handle clothing,” states Flanders DC. Last week, a group of CEOs from seven Belgian fashion companies traveled to Ghana to witness the consequences of the textile waste problem firsthand. During the mission, organized by Flanders DC, the participants signed a charter on “responsible and transparent supply chain management.” The charter includes commitments regarding both the supply chain (upstream due diligence) and post-sale chain (downstream). In the coming months, the goal is for other Belgian fashion companies to join this initiative, but the first signatories already represent nine brands: Bel&Bo, Claes Retail Group, e5.be Fashion, Noterman Fashion, Pluto, Schoenen Torfs, and Xandres. https://lnkd.in/ghiwiJWj

  10 years of Fashion Revolution day!   Komrads celebrates the 10th anniversary of Fashion Revolution Day, A Day to remind us of the importance of ethical and sustainable practices within the fashion industry. A day to create global awareness about the impact of fashion on people and planet   At Komrads we consider ethical working conditions as one of our main focus points. Therefore we produce within the EU (Portugal). Where our manufacturer is also committed to fair and safe working conditions. On a regular basis we visit our production factories,ensuring that your sneakers are made under fair wages and fair working conditions.   But we do more. Our distribution partner vzw NEKTARI gives vulnerable people with a distance to the job market (disabled, ex-prisoners, refugees) a chance to get a meaningful job and develop their talents.   Fashion Revolution Day takes place in memory of the tragic event of April 24, 2013, the Rana Plaza disaster. The building, located in Bangladesh, housed 5,000 workers, mostly women, working in poor conditions. On that tragic day, the building collapsed, killing 1,100 people and injuring 2,500 others. To this day, Fashion Revolution Day symbolizes the urgent need for safe working conditions in the fashion industry, as well as fair wages for all workers. #komradsofthefuture #fashionrevolutionday #
