Big impact, with a small footprint
We believe that shirts matter because the people who wear them matter.
We’re committed to delivering the best results possible for our business, employees, communities, and planet—because we believe that looking your best today doesn’t have to come at the cost of the planet’s best tomorrow.
Sustainable Products
We believe in meeting each of the three pillars of sustainability—planet, people, and profit.
Planet
Through the products we source, the inks we print with, and our processes and workflow — we keep the planet in mind in all that we do.
Our Products
We are intentional about partnering with sustainable suppliers in order to provide you with a variety of ethically produced, sustainably-made apparel from wholesale partners like Bella + Canvas®, Allmade®, RoyalApparel®, Econscious®, and more.
People
A holistic approach to sustainability involves valuing the people involved in every step of the process. From the people who knit together the blank garments we print on, to the people who do the printing, to the eventual shirt-wearer (you), people are the reason that we do what we do.
We believe in treating our people well, paying them fairly, and building a workplace culture in which all involved genuinely care for each other. We offer multiple weekly opportunities for teams to get to know each other better, as well as monthly lunches in which we all come together to celebrate wins & understand losses as a team.
We're about celebrating wins in a big way—and shouting out members of the team on a weekly and monthly basis who are really living into our company’s Core Values.
Profit
We are pleased to work alongside good-doers (from individuals to organizations to small community groups) near & far as they seek to positively impact their communities—and are also passionate about making a difference in our own personal community. We also offer a non-profit discount to 501(c)3 organizations—so be sure to talk to the team before placing your order!
Speaking of the team: sharing overall organizational profit with the whole team is a fundamental part of our business model. After six months with the company, every employee is eligible to participate in Real Thread's profit share program.
