T
his is truly a first. Launched last year, the brand delivers a living wage scheme that others are still only talking about. Products showing the Fair Share label carry a small price premium that is passed directly on to the garment workers in India towards their Living Wage. Adding as little as 10p to the price of a T shirt, or 54p to the price of a hoodie, will result in a 50% increase in the wages of the poorest workers at the factory in India. A microsite

The range includes T shirts and hoodies in Fairtrade certified organic cotton.
