How We Show Up – Jungmaven

What we stand for—and how that shows up in our materials, practices, and team culture

MATERIAL TRANSPARENCY

Collectively, our supplier partner certifications include:

GOTS, OCS, GRS, RCS – Organic and recycled content verification
Bluesign®, Oeko-Tex, REACH, ISO 9001 – Safe, sustainable, and quality-focused production
Fair Trade, BSCI, BCI, Ponto Verde – Ethical labor and responsible sourcing
Lenzing Certification – Verified use of sustainable fibers like TENCEL™ and ECOVERO™

BRAND GUARANTEE

We stand behind the quality of every Jungmaven product with a 1-year warranty from the date of purchase, covering defects in materials or workmanship. If you experience a manufacturing defect within the first year, we'll repair or replace your item at our discretion—just return it to your authorized seller or contact us directly. While natural wear and tear is part of the journey, damage from misuse or neglect isn't covered. When properly cared for, our hemp blends are built to last for years of adventures and we stand behind that promise!

MADE IN CALIFORNIA
Every Jungmaven piece (aside from socks, beanies, and scarves) is proudly cut and sewn in California by partners who are Garment Authority (GA) certified—meeting some of the highest standards in the U.S. for ethical labor and fair wages.

Workers are paid fairly (never by piece rate)
Factories maintain clean, safe working conditions
Brands are held accountable under California labor law

We believe in slow fashion with a clear conscience—choosing partners who treat people with dignity and craft with care.

CIRCULARITY
Collaborating with resale and recycling platforms allows us to help close the loop.

Ever Jung Resell

Enables peer-to-peer resale of Jungmaven garments
Encourages longer product lifespans
Reduces waste and supports mindful consumption

Trashie: Take-Back + Textile Recycling

Helps customers responsibly recycle or repurpose old clothes
Supports sustainable shopping and responsible decluttering

Cationic Dyeing

Our most eco-friendly dye process yet
Using chitosan, a natural fiber made from discarded shells of shrimp, crabs, and lobsters—materials that would otherwise go to waste
Dyed at lower temperatures with less time, less energy, and no added chemicals.

5-Pack Sale

We also faced the challenge of what to do with products that had minor imperfections—items that weren’t perfect, but still totally functional. Instead of discarding them, we created our 5-Pack Sale, which includes these “imperfects.” They may have small holes, light blemishes, or stitching quirks, but nothing that affects wearability. This initiative helps keep fully usable garments out of the landfill while offering customers a more affordable, lower-waste shopping option.

Upcycling: New pieces made from off-cut materials

We’re committed to nearshoring—producing almost everything within a 20-mile radius of Los Angeles. Keeping our supply chain close to home cuts down on shipping, reduces emissions, and keeps us connected to the people who make our clothes.

We ship your order with minimal packaging that is 100% readily re-usable and can be recycled. And unlike most online clothing brands, we don’t use polybags for individual items. It takes more training, more time, and more hands-on care from our team—but it’s worth it. Because creating less plastic waste isn’t just a nice idea—it’s a responsibility we take seriously.

Each year we produce only two collections of seasonless products in limited production runs. 100% of our products contain hemp and are dyed using low impact dyes.

LOCAL COMMUNITY & GLOBAL COMMUNITY IMPACT

We donate excess product to local organizations doing great work, including:

And when disaster strikes, we show up—sending care packages to support victims of Hurricane Helene, the Maui wildfires, California wildfires, and other devastating events.

Our love for nature and the Pacific Northwest runs deep. Through custom-designed tees, we’ve helped raise funds and awareness for incredible organizations, including:

Each partnership supports vital environmental protection efforts and reflects our commitment to building a future that honors the planet and the people who care for it.
