SweetLegs' Signature Line is designed in Kelowna, BC by our in-house design team. Our Signature Line is then manufactured overseas (China), as the process that creates our signature softness is not available in North America. SweetLegs follows a high standard for suppliers adopted by major retail brands large and small, ensuring that suppliers are responsible for ethical compliance throughout their operations and the entire product supply chain. Rest assured, we have gone to great lengths to ensure that the manufacturing process is ethical, humane, and the workers are treated well and paid a fair wage. All SweetLegs manufacturing facilities are toured yearly by our compliance team and all employees work in a safe, ethical environment and are paid living wages.
SweetLegs' factories are also proud to follow a responsible manufacturing initiative to reduce waste during fabric production. First, our signature fabric is carefully knitted and quality checked. Water and dye are then mixed together to colour the fabric which produces resultant waste. Historically this sediment used to be released into the local river or lake, which can be damaging to local ecosystems. Our fabric mills use a government certified Environmental Management System which does not permit the expulsion of waste products and requires all waste products to be treated and recycled. As part of the wastewater treatment, this waste is separated into water and solid sediment. The water is then treated and stays in the factory to be reused for future dye projects, and the solid sediment is dried and pressed into bricks suitable for construction projects.
All orders are packed and shipped from our SweetLegs HQ, located in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada.
