《Design based on the premise of recycling》
In order to be animal-based and to use as few non-recyclable and disposable materials as possible, the MUD Jeans label is printed directly on denim rather than the usual leather patches. In addition, the buttons and rivets are made of 100% stainless steel and can be recycled after removal. All of this goes into a simple, minimalist design.
《GOTS Certified Organic Cotton》
MUD Jeans uses only GOTS certified organic cotton. The use of organic cotton is one of the reasons why MUD Jeans has been able to reduce the amount of water used during production.
Conventional cotton uses a large amount of toxic pesticides for cultivation. It has been pointed out that these chemicals not only harm people working on farms and wild animals, but also adversely affect neighboring areas due to aerial spraying. In addition, they are often grown in the same soil, which depletes the quality and nutrients of the soil, resulting in the use of large amounts of water. By using GOTS certified organic cotton, we are not only guaranteed that more than 70% of the cotton we buy is organic, but we are also confident that very strict environmental, chemical and social rules are followed, and that we are guaranteed to trade fairly with farmers.
《Dyeing method that saves almost 100% water》
It is also sustainable in terms of dyeing, which is indispensable for jeans, and dyes with a dyeing method that has received C2C certification*. We use "Foam Dyeing" to reduce water consumption by 99%, chemicals by 86%, and energy by 65%. This technique, which involves applying foam to the yarn and dyeing it, is an astonishing and innovative new dyeing technology in the denim industry.
