Why 100% Cotton?
We are committed to 100% cotton for our sweats because it is a natural fabric that breathes and never leaves our clients feeling overheated. Cotton fibre holds its shape but softens overtime for stylish comfort every stage of wear and, as a single content fabric, is easily recycled at end of life.
Why are World's Best Sweats more expensive than other brands?
Our sweats have a higher retail because they are carefully crafted from top-quality 100% Canadian- milled cotton in a fair labour factory right here in Canada. But, we don't like to think of World's Best Sweats as more expensive! If you consider how much longer you'll wear a World's Best Sweats hoodie or sweatpants, they are great value.
Are World’s Best Sweats sustainable?
The biggest harm to the environment in the apparel industry is the disposal of low quality garments that wear out after only a few wears. Because our sweats can be worn 4 times longer than many mixed fabric alternatives, we are already a more sustainable alternative. We also offer new colour drawstrings and de-pilling care tools for our sweats so our customers can continue enjoying and wearing our styles for the duration of the fabric. Owning quality garments that are long-lasting and repairable is the best way to be sustainable!
Are World's Best Sweats recyclable?
All Worlds Best Sweats are 100% recyclable. You can wear our sweats 4 times longer than many mixed fabric alternatives and, because they are 100% cotton, you can recycle them at end-of-life. Recycled cotton garments are often used in housing materials like insulation, for filling in furniture, cushions and more. If you bring or send your end-of-life sweats back to us, we will ensure they are properly recycled and even email you once we know what your sweats become!
