For sustainability reasons, we do not use elastane for cuffs and hems. This means that your garment may stretch in these areas during wear and then return to its original shape after washing.

We recommend washing this sweater at 30°C to prevent shrinkage and to maintain its beautiful appearance. Cleaning and air drying your laundry at lower temperatures saves energy and money and helps you minimize your carbon footprint.

This is a small factory with which we want to grow together in the future, in accordance with our principle of building long-term partnerships on equal terms. The factory produces wonderful knitwear for us.

We pay attention to fair working conditions and a healthy working environment, and not just in the sewing department. From the cotton to the finished product, we can trace all ingredients and guarantee compliance with ecological standards along the entire supply chain. All of our production steps take place in the countries from which the raw materials come. This helps to maximize local added value and shorten transport routes.

MELA clothing is triple certified according to Fairtrade Cotton, the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) and the Green Button. In our opinion, the social and ecological aspects of these standards complement each other perfectly, so that we can speak with a clear conscience about holistically sustainable textiles.

• Through the Fairtrade Cotton Standard, we ensure that social criteria are adhered to when extracting raw materials. We place particular emphasis on fair pay for cotton farmers. With every MELA item you buy, you support Indian cotton cooperatives with a Fairtrade premium. MELA is also part of the new Fairtrade Textile Standard and is committed to living wages along the entire supply chain.
• The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) ensures that only ecologically optimized substances are used along the entire supply chain - from cotton cultivation to dyeing the fabrics - and that social standards are met. This is monitored by independent certification bodies.
• In addition, this fashion item is also certified according to the state textile seal Green Button, which checks social and environmental criteria at both product and company level.
