Jeans Guide – Low Impact Denim

Jeans are fashionable evergreens. They're not just romping around en masse in the closet. They are usually also mass-produced. Under the worst social and ecological conditions. It is not for nothing that people speak of the “dirtiest piece of clothing” in the world. The brands in the GREENSTYLE Jeans Guide prove that darling denim is also a good choice.

Produced fairly, in environmentally friendly batches, with less water consumption, made from organic cotton or hemp – that’s what the GREENSTYLE Jeans Guide is all about. Because there are many ways to produce the dirtiest piece of clothing with less impact on people and nature. You just have to want it. And there are also certifications and awards for this, such as from the Fair Wear Foundation, GOTS or PETA approved vegan. Our Jeans Guide tells you which brands you can trust.
