Let’s journey together into the heart of one of our best selling brands – Hoodlamb – a premium outdoor clothing brand which doesn’t compensate quality for sustainability.
Choosing a good quality eco-friendly coat can be hard. With an environmental mindset ticking away, it can be difficult choosing something to keep you warm which doesn’t tug at your eco-consciousness (knowing what we know about the manufacturing of heavy duty, and in particular, synthetic fabrics).
This is where brands such as Hoodlamb by Hemp Tailor have such a positive impact on the way we approach our fashion choices. Hemp Tailor is a Dutch brand with a serious emphasis on promoting plant based fashion; incorporating high quality hemp fibres into their cruelty free clothing. Hoodlamb create trend-focused, eco-friendly premium fashion in a complete range of vegan jackets and vegan coats for men and women.
Hoodlamb is an environmentally conscious brand which considers two integral aspects of shopping for quality, durable and sustainable outdoor wears. Their entire range is made using Hemp fabric which is the most sustainable natural fibre used in the production of clothing, particularly compared to cotton. The second desirable factor of the Hoodlamb range is the amount of their cruelty free clothing, which consists of vegan coats and vegan jackets. Thirdly, the detailing and thoughtfulness which goes into the design of each garment is impressive and easily makes this a brand to rival other, less sustainable outerwear competitors.
We take a look at some key detailing of two of our best selling Hoodlamb by Hemp Tailor coats, Classic Hoodlamb Coat and a Nordic Parka, to give you an idea about why purchasing a quality plant-based coat is an ideal antidote to a non-sustainable alternative.
