Our Initiatives
At Status Quo, we are committed to crafting a range of clothing that is not only eco-friendly but also stylish and of the highest quality. Our brand is where fashion meets fitness, all while caring for the environment.
By choosing our high-quality garments, designed to last, you contribute to a sustainable future. Each of our products is ethically sourced, from design to manufacturing, and we use materials that include recycled content in our shipping bags and tags. Our focus is on reducing negative impacts on people, animals, and the planet.
When you purchase our activewear, you’re not just buying products that look and feel great—you’re supporting a brand dedicated to sustainability. Our commitment to reducing waste, using sustainable materials from seed to garment, and making measured improvements in our sustainability goals each year is unwavering.
Our factories and manufacturing facilities meet our stringent ethical standards, certifications, and approaches. We only work with partners who comply with these standards at all times.
We are dedicated to our brand’s mission of delivering the best products while continuously sourcing ethical and sustainable materials to innovate our manufacturing processes. We prioritize both people and the planet.
Our Sustainable Materials Include:
Supima Cotton:
Supima cotton, grown in the USA, is a superior cotton variety that represents less than 1% of the world’s cotton production. What sets Supima apart is its extra-long staple fiber, which provides premium properties: strength, softness, and color retention. As a sustainable, renewable, and biodegradable material, Supima cotton stands out for its integrity and longevity, making it a top choice for our sustainable clothing line.
Recycled Nylon:
We incorporate recycled nylon to reduce our reliance on virgin petroleum, lower greenhouse gas emissions, and eliminate discarded material. Recycled nylon, often sourced from old fishing nets, requires fewer resources (including water, energy, and fossil fuels) than virgin nylon, helping us divert waste from landfills.
Recycled Spandex:
Spandex, also known as elastane or Lycra, provides the stretch needed for freedom of movement in our garments. However, the production of virgin spandex fibers contributes to pollution and global warming. By using recycled spandex, we achieve the same elasticity and comfort while repurposing materials that would otherwise end up in landfills.
Bamboo:
Bamboo is our material of choice for its comfort and environmental benefits. As a pure plant fiber, bamboo requires no chemical products, uses less water, and is highly suitable for recycling. Our bamboo products are made from a blend of 70% bamboo viscose and 30% cotton, offering a soft and sustainable option for eco-conscious consumers.
