Sustainability

As of  late 2022, Cybersticky has taken measures to provide low environmental impact clothing that is not based on micro trends. We understand that the term "Sustainable Fashion" is an oxymoron itself, however reducing potential fashion waste has been shown to effect the impact it has on landfills and overall pollution which is our overall goal. Our Sticky's World Collection is made of 360 GSM Organic Cotton and made in a limited quantity of 20 sets. The SBS denim jeans dropping 04/22, are made of recycled denim and accessories. It was handcrafted and machine made by our manufacturer Muhammad in Pakistan using ethical work conditions and manufacturing. We handmade many of our items in the past and will continue to do so for select drops. We hope to partner with sustainable organizations and charities to convince our audience to adopt a sustainable fashion forward future without over consuming. The Future is Sticky, Don't Live in The Past. 
 
We use non plastic packaging for the most part, however due to miscommunication with the manufacturer our "Future is Sticky" bags are made of polymers, however they are recyclable and we strongly encourage our consumers to reuse them. We use paper tape and either biodegradable/compostable mailers or boxes to ship out our items. 

 

Our clothing items released after September of 2022 are made of either organic or recycled fabrics. If you have the time, please check out my free "Future of Sustainability" E Magazine to inform yourself or to view my outlook on the situation.

WHAT YOU CAN DO?
Not everyone has the ability to donate to charities or to insert themselves into the fighting ring. However, everyone has the ability to fix their habits. Use these resources to be the change and start your journey today. Nobody is perfect but we can never see progress without effort. As a member of Generation Z, I try my best to inform myself and make changes in my daily life to minimize environmental waste. As well as use more sustainable practices in my business. The Future is Sticky, don't live in the past
