Where to Shop Ethical Clothes for Kids & Babies

When shopping for our little ones, be them babies, boys, or girls, we always want the best quality – in addition to being cute, of course! These companies, most of which are founded by moms just like us, set out to not only ensure high quality and cuteness, but also that their pieces were ethically made and non-toxic. Sounds, like a no-brainer, right? We’ve talked a bit about why this is important here and here, but sustainability and factory work environments are major issues in the fashion industry. So, we want to support the change-makers out there. If you’re curious where to shop for ethical clothes for kids and babies, these are the boutiques and brands where you should start…

Finn + Emma

Graphic Onesie

Made from buttery-soft organic cotton, Finn + Emma offers easy and comfortable pieces for your babes. But more importantly, they ensure the clothing is 100% organic, non-toxic, made with eco-friendly dyes, and lead/nickel free snaps, ethically made in India, and G.O.T.S. certified. Which, if you aren’t familiar is the world’s leading textile processing standard for organic fibers, including ecological and social criteria. And we like our clothes, and especially those for our kiddos, with standards.
