But with so many brands claiming to be sustainable, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. Don't worry, we've got you covered with a list of top sustainable fashion brands for men!
1. Tentree
"Tentree is one of my favorite sustainable brands that I wear almost daily; they plant 10 ten trees for every purchase (hence the name)," says lifestyle influencer Steven Fingar. "Not only are the products great to wear and priced accessible, but the ethos of the company is also around sustainability—from sourcing materials to manufacturing and traceability." To add, the minimalist-style brand has been carbon neutral since 2020 and has planted almost 85 million trees to date. As for what Tentree's best at, Fingar recommends their t-shirts which can be dressed up or down; their editors-tested pants, jackets, and joggers are also a standout. Some of their signature looks are available on Amazon.
2. Outerknown
Founded by surf legend Kelly Slater, Outerknown is all about sustainability and transparency. They use recycled materials, organic cotton, and other sustainable fabrics to create stylish and comfortable clothing. Their bathing suits are amazing and easily available on Amazon.
How sustainable is Outerknown, the originator of the blanket shirt, you ask? It is Fair Trade certified, part of the Fair Labor Association, has kept almost 2000 garments out of the landfill, already set its sustainability goals for 2030, is one of the first brands to make swimwear out of ECONYL, and even makes buttons out of recycled ocean plastic. With a almost 100% usage of sustainable fibers, Outerknown makes fast fashion pale in comparison.
3. Alex Crane
Alex Crane uses plants, rocks, nuts, trees, wools—any natural garment material you can think of—to make clothes that are easy and breezy. Known for their comfortable and sustainable linen shirts, Alex Crane offers a range of versatile pieces that are perfect for spring. Their clothing is made with eco-friendly materials, and the brand is committed to minimizing its environmental impact.
4. Carhartt
Carhartt is a classic American workwear brand that has been producing durable and high-quality clothing since 1889. Their clothing is built to last and designed to withstand the toughest conditions, making it a popular choice for outdoor enthusiasts and workers alike. They also prioritize sustainability, with their organic cotton and recycled polyester collections.
5. Levi's
When the good-ole American Levi’s is willing to update its iconic 501 jeans to be sustainably made and to be recyclable, you know the brand is serious about this initiative. In fact, Levi’s is one of the most sustainable denim brands in the world when it comes to reducing water usage and chemical use. The brand is also all for encouraging buyers to approach sustainability. “Levi's simply never goes out of style and Levi's products last a long time. You can easily find them readily available at second-hand thrift stores which makes the items last even longer with reuse and up-cycling,” says style influencer Leo Chan.
By choosing these sustainable fashion brands, you'll not only look great but also feel good about your impact on the planet. So, go ahead and add some eco-friendly pieces to your wardrobe this spring!
