When is an original not an original?

When after 5 years of business you do a rebrand, put your new sexy logo on some super soft organic sweatshirts and hope everyone thinks you always looked like this.

So welcome to 'The Original'. It's not really an original, but it is a damn good sweatshirt.

The same quality super soft, brushed back organic cotton in medium-weight we use for all our sweats. Ethically sourced from suppliers who are members of the Fair Wear foundation and screen printed by hand by our mates Steve & Craig in their Somerset studio.

Dropped shoulder sweatshirt aesthetic with a subtle crop and wide rib collar for on-point style. Oh and it's PETA approved Vegan like all our styles.

Yep, it's the light layer you've been looking for, with a touch of Goose flair for good measure.

Fit

Drop Shoulder, Boxy Fit - Relaxed drop shoulder sweatshirt that sits well off the shoulder. Inspired by boxy, workwear styles with a slightly oversized feel. Arms extend to the wrist.

Subtle crop for a great look worn with medium rise and high waisted trousers.

If you're in-between sizes or slightly uncertain, we recommend taking the size down.

This organic sweatshirt was manufactured in Tiruppur, Tamil Nadu, Southern India. At the factory owned by our supplier, Continental Clothing LTD. This factory pays the living wage for the local region.

Continental are leaders in wholesale and bespoke garment manufacturing and have a 'Leader' rating with the Fair Wear Foundation. This includes recognition of their living wage project being implemented.

Screen printed by hand in Bath, UK by our friends Steve & Craig at Memory Screen Print Studio.

Finished by hand in Essex, UK by the Goose Studios team.

1. Only wash if it needs it - do a cheeky sniff test!

2. Wash inside out on a 30c wash to keep our planet cool. (40c is fine too)

3. Where possible, air dry. If you do need to tumble dry then all our organic cotton is preshrunk to minimise extra shrinkage.

4. Flatten out and give it a little re-shape when damp after each wash.

5. Wear it lots and lots.

6. Take care of it and it'll take care of you!

This style is PETA-approved Vegan, ensuring no animals were used or tested on for ingredients, formulations, or the finished product.

This style is made from 100% organic cotton. This promotes farming practices that conserve soil, diversify crops, increase bio-diversity and avoids all synthetic pesticides and fertilisers.

Our ethical suppliers are Fair Wear Foundation members with a rating of 'Leader'. This ensures the development of garment worker rights and conditions alongside regular third party auditing.

The factory making this style now pays the living wage - alongside extra employee benefits. This wasn't always the case, and it's been amazing to see the Fair Wear Foundation working with our suppliers to constantly improve workers benefits and rights.

For the past 4years, every purchase made with Goose Studios protects 5 mature rainforest trees thanks to our partnership with One Tribe and Rainforest Trust.

Non-renewable energy powers the transport for this style from Asia to the UK. Unsurprisingly both air and sea freight are fairly terrible for emissions. Any advice on how to reduce our impact from transport would be amazing! Email us at info@goosestudios.co.uk

The washing instructions label is recycled polyester. Which is better than normal polyester, but still polyester. Classic good cop/bad cop scenario... Only there's another organic cotton cop in the mix being like, 'you should just use organic cotton'. That cop has a point.

The impact from clothing on the world comes from when each one us buys something new. 

When you buy from Goose Studios make sure it's because you need a new t-shirt, sweatshirt or hoodie.

If that old one you really loved is beyond repair, then we'd love you to buy one of our super-soft organic cotton styles.

We know ours will last you for years to come. It's why we sweat the details.

So when you shop, anywhere, keep 4 words in mind.

Buy less, buy better.

It'll start a little revolution with every purchase you make.
