Dare to wear it. This limited edition 100% sustainable t-shirt is made using a blend of recycled organic cotton cutting waste and organic raw cotton. 

Over 4 million tons of fabric end up in landfills each year. So, we decided to repurpose the waste and turn it into something that sends a message. 

Will you join the revolution and wear what you believe in?

Every year, an estimated 92 million tons of textile waste are generated globally.

Each garment in the collection is made using a blend of recycled organic cotton and raw organic cotton with a small percentage of recycled polyester added to the hoodies.

This minimises emissions, pesticides and water use and helps to divert tons of fabric and plastic waste away from landfills.

#TeeForATree

Pollution hates trees. So, we’re planting more of them.

For every piece sold, we’ll plant one tree, meaning each purchase will trigger a measurable action for good and create an even bigger environmental impact.

• 50% Recycled cotton
• 50% Organic raw cotton

To make this fabric, leftover cotton cuttings are transported to a spinning mill where they are finely shredded before being blended with virgin organic cotton. These fibres are then twisted and spun into new yarn, which is knitted into durable fabric.
The recycled fibres make the fabric surface less smooth, but still perfectly comfortable.
No dyeing here

The colour has been created by blending undyed virgin organic cotton with black organic cotton waste to create a natural heather effect.

Made By You

We asked 5000 of our VIU community to co-create a new sustainable product with us and asked what statement they wanted to make to stand for change.


The chosen slogans were the most popular answers – so we made it happen.

Rewrite the Rules

Sustainability and style have no gender. That’s why these garments are unisex.


We made this collection to spread an important message, not be held back by gender norms.


So no matter who you are, you can make a statement in comfortable clothing that suits you (and your radical beliefs).

Wearable Activism

One voice fades, but many voices make an echo.


The U-Clothing collection has a purpose.

To say you care. To start a movement.


To stand for your future.

To Act.

Fairly Made

The production of these clothes happens with 100% social respect: 


The garment workers have freely chosen their employment, are paid a living wage and work under safe conditions.
