Environmental challenges transcend boundaries, affecting people and communities everywhere. Protecting our planet is fundamental to our sustainable business strategy and central to our company’s future.
Our environmental management approach focuses on addressing climate, water, and waste—issues where we see significant potential to positively impact people’s lives and enrich the world’s communities. We take steps every day to achieve our bold goals, including by incorporating sustainable practices into product development and partnering with businesses, non-profits, governments and community organizations to do our part in building a thriving planet.
To build the resilience of our company, our supply chain and the people who make our clothes, we are reducing water impacts through more sustainable approaches to materials sourcing and manufacturing.
