Eco-Friendly Efforts

AUTHENT!C8 Collective & Apparel sees minimizing our environmental impact and respecting the natural world as a necessity in fulfilling our purpose.

Conserving natural resources has been one of the many ways we express gratitude for our home planet. Mass amounts of water is wasted during the process of most garment production, which results in negative impacts on the environment and life within it. Many industry-standard inks are made using chemicals that can be harmful to the environment, which is why our process avoids the release of chemicals during and after the printing process.

Our apparel uses 100% toxin-free eco-ink, made using sustainable ingredients that contain no animal by-products, and are completely vegan friendly. To keep our efforts eco-centered, we choose sustainable materials and direct-to-garment printing that uses 95% less water and 50% less energy than your typical process. In addition to saving energy, we operate through a print-on-demand model, which allows us to minimize production waste.

As of 2025, our Vintage Collection has become an outlet for hundreds of people to shop ethical fashion online, and in-person at our local markets. Purchasing second-hand helps reduces waste in landfills, and gives back to the community at the same time. Whether you're donating or buying goods, your contribution matters to charity organizations who help communities all around the world.
