For us, the cost of labour in Canada is the biggest expense when breaking down pricing for any of our products. But we don't mind—it's the expense we're proudest of.

This cost funds the wages, medical and dental health benefits, and safe and comfortable working environment for our production staff in Toronto.

When compared against brands that use similar sustainable materials and quality finishings as us, we take home less profits. This is mostly due to the higher cost of our labour.

We feel this is important for our customers to be aware of, especially considering our pricing is close to or on par with slow fashion brands that don't manufacture in Canada.

For fashion brands, materials are often one of the most expensive parts of production.

Our material expenses are higher than comparable brands because of the high quality, sustainable materials we use.

This expense is associated with the shipment of your order. And this doesn't even include the labour and warehousing fees for packing and storing products.

Every time we ship a package it costs us about $14 for each trip.

In today's fast-paced world, getting in front of consumers is one of the largest challenges small businesses face.

For us, this cost goes towards advertising and finding potential customers that are interested in what we stand for.
