Ethical fashion need to be “Sustainable”.
There is no big means to be temporary ethical.

If we have sewing factory to work for low wedge and short term, someday they go bankrupt.

Mass production over our demand makes excessive stock in result, The brand that worry about be damaged by sold cheap price dispose their stocks to protect brand’s value and profit. This is the current situation for apparel world. They are too much burden on natural environment.

KUDEN think ethical has to be sustainable = consideration for environment to produce products long time.

Not only produce new product like that, Also “ keep using already on market or you have with thanks to environment and producer, not disposal and throw away immediately” is important sustainable approach for KUDEN.
