Certifications from respected and credible third-party organizations are imperative at Original Favorites because they certify a brand to global sustainability standards. By analyzing a company's entire supply chain, third-party certifiers are able to verify that every supply chain meets the current global standards. The depth that these third-party certifications go give not only the company, but also the consumer, confidence in their clothes and assurance in the impact of their garment.

These certifications are not easy to obtain but that is because they ask tough questions and demand proof. We love that. We have done the work and spent the time to do this the right way and we feel other apparel brands should do the same.

Our factories are some of the most dynamic and forward thinking in the apparel industry. These partners of ours assist in a variety of ways including material handling, warehousing of physical products, and raw material production and procurement. All of these activities are organized by tier when being certified and verified by third-party authenticators like Supima® and GOTS®.

Curating the perfect supply chain is no easy task and as good as ours is, it requires constant attention and analysis. It takes diligence to balance a production process that won't compromise our values and still produces the best possible quality results. We have complete transparency into our entire supply chain and are proud of that. But for as much as we have done, there will always be more that we can do. We have continued to expand each step of analysis from our farms to our final garments. Complete honesty and transparency will be what drives change in the clothing industry - we just hope that we can help show other brands that if it can be done by us, it can be done by anyone.
