Organic Basics (25)

Organic Basics is a carbon-neutral, Copenhagen based sustainable clothing brand that makes underwear, essentials and activewear in organic and recycled materials. We believe in constant innovation, more sustainable materials and certified ethical production. Organic Basics is designed in Denmark, produced locally in Europe, and worn worldwide.

How we started:

  • Three Danish school friends didn’t like any of the underwear they wore — they decided it could be made better
  • No fashion school. No experience — but Organic Basics was born anyway
  • They started out in 2015 by crowdfunding
  • No one knew sustainability was going to be at the centre of the fashion conversation — but they were set at creating a brand with purpose and meaning

Sustainability at the core:

  • We are a Sustainable native — a group of innovators, fabric geeks, activists, minimalists and more who put sustainability at the centre of everything that we do.
  • We only work with renewable, recycled, low-impact or organic materials
  • We design everything to last
  • We invest in quality fabrics and workmanship
  • We carry non-seasonal collections and limit over-production
  • When we say that sustainability is the core of everything we do, we don’t mean that sustainability is nice to have — we mean that it’s the only way we act

Ethically Made

These goods are made by suppliers that pay fair wages, guarantee no child labour, and maintain a safe working environment.

Handmade

Handcrafted goods are one of a kind that have been created by skilled artisans often using techniques passed down through generations, rather than by automated, machine-based processes. Small irregularities are celebrated and are what make handcrafted goods unique.

Local

Goods made from materials that can be replenished at the rate they are consumed, all with minimal environmental and social impact. Such as FSC wood, bamboo and wool. 

Transparent

These goods are produced by artisans or companies that are open, honest, and straightforward about their business operations. Transparency builds trust, from makers through to customers.
