Calvin Klein Kind’s Commitment to Sustainability

It is our goal at Calvin Klein Kind to communicate, our commitment of being an entirely ethical and sustainable range, to our conscientious consumer.  

Calvin Klein take the safety and security of our workers very seriously. We carry out unannounced audits at least once a year at our factories to make sure manufacturers abide by our ethical standards. It is our priority to make sure our garments feel comfortable and secure in their workplace. Afterall, our excellent garments can only be produced through excellent standards. 

The Calvin Klein Kind range is manufactured in Turkey by the countries extremely talented artisans. We consciously decided to manufacture in Turkey because of their specialty in highly skilled tailoring and knitwear; but more importantly garments worker are paid fairer wages in comparison to the workers in manufacturing countries. Workers are exploited due to the extremely low minimum wages in these developing countries, which is Calvin Klein Kind is resolutely against. 

A unique selling point of our range is that we have utilised new and technologically advanced materials in our six-piece workwear collection. This was done in effort to promise our customers all our items are vegan and biodegradable, as they are derived from natural sources. This ensures that when the garment comes to the end of its long life, it can be easily renewed and not contribute to the rapidly growing pile of unsustainable clothing in landfill. 

To combat the ever-growing pile of clothing in landfill, Calvin Klein Kind are launching a repairs service for our garments. The purpose is to encourage our customers to repair, reuse and\or resell their unwanted garments and improve their life cycle. This is integral to stimulating a circular economy and reversing the effects of climate change. 

At Calvin Klein we understand the importance for education of all children around the world, as Education is the key to a better and brighter future. Therefore, we promise that a percentage of proceeds from our Calvin Klein Kind range will be utilised to support educating the children of dedicated garment workers in manufacturing countries. When you as a consumer purchase an item from Calvin Klein Kind, you’re doing your bit for the world; as with every product sold, another child gets an opportunity to learn.
