From Waste to Wardrobe: How Kind to Skin Gives Fabrics a Second Life

In fashion, waste is often seen as inevitable. Huge rolls of fabric are left behind after large-scale production runs, destined to sit in warehouses or end up in landfills. At Kind to Skin, we see something different: opportunity.

Instead of letting perfectly good fabric go to waste, we repurpose these surplus materials into something beautiful, practical, and ethical — our signature underwear.

Giving Leftover Fabrics a New Purpose

The fabric we use is not second-rate. It’s high-quality, certified material originally produced for larger brands. When they leave it behind, we step in. By saving these fabrics and transforming them into underwear, we reduce waste, extend the life of resources, and create products that are both sustainable and skin-friendly.

Every piece you wear is proof that fashion waste doesn’t have to be the norm, it can be reimagined.

Certified to Care

We know that what touches your skin matters. That’s why every fabric we repurpose carries the highest standards of safety and sustainability:

  • OEKO-TEX® 100 – Tested for harmful substances, verified safe for skin.

  • FSC® Certified – Responsible sourcing, protecting forests and ecosystems.

  • Ecodye® – Fabrics dyed responsibly, minimising water and chemical use.

  • Organic Content Standard 100 – Guaranteed organic fibre content.

These certifications mean you can trust every piece is genuinely kind to your body and the planet.

An Ethical Supply Chain

Sustainability isn’t just about fabric, it’s also about people. From the very first stitch, our products are made under fair wage policies and ethical working conditions. Every hand involved in production is treated with respect, ensuring your underwear is as kind to its makers as it is to you.

Waste Less. Wear Better.

When you choose Kind to Skin, you’re not just buying underwear — you’re taking a stand against wasteful fashion. You’re saying yes to softer fabrics, safer materials, ethical practices, and a cleaner future.

From waste to wardrobe, every pair tells a story of renewal. And the best part? You get to wear that story, every day.
