Shop ethical
Support local

Ethical Clothing Australia is an accreditation body. We work collaboratively with local textile, clothing and footwear (TCF) businesses to protect and uphold the rights of Australian garment workers. To be Ethical Clothing Australia accredited, a business’s manufacturing operations are audited from design to dispatch to ensure that local TCF workers, including outworkers, are being paid appropriately, receiving all their legal entitlements and working in safe conditions. By supporting an Ethical Clothing Australia accredited business you are helping to strengthen the Australian TCF industry and you’re valuing the rights of our local garment workers.
