About Goat Organic Apparel
Goat Organic Apparel is a Dutch clothing brand renowned for its commitment to sustainability, ethical production, and affordability. Established by twin sisters Abigail and Lavinia Bakker, the brand emerged from the quest for a basic white T-shirt that was not only sustainable and organic but also accessible to the average consumer. The company's philosophy is encapsulated in the motto: "Sustainability is not sustainable if it’s not accessible," highlighting their belief that sustainable fashion should be available to all.
The brand's product line is characterized by the exclusive use of 100% organic cotton, which is cultivated without harmful chemicals or pesticides, significantly reducing water usage by 91% and saving around 46% of CO2 emissions and 61% energy compared to conventional cotton. Goat Organic Apparel's fabrics are sourced from GOTS and/or OCS certified plants in India, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint.
Moreover, Goat Organic Apparel is dedicated to social impact. The brand's production partner adheres to the highest standards of worker safety and fair treatment. Systematic monitoring of working conditions and practices in partner factories is conducted, with concrete action plans implemented to foster improvements.
In addition to environmental and social considerations, the brand also supports Fair-priced Grocery Shops, which benefit nearly 38,000 workers by offering food items at almost 50% discount, thereby increasing the spending power of families.
Founded in 2017, Goat Organic Apparel has since been providing a range of clothing items, including the iconic T-shirts starting at €24,95, classic sweaters, and comfortable tracksuits, all reflecting the brand's ethos of making green choices affordable and stylish..
