SUSTAINABILITY, VERSATILITY, RECYCLED

SUSTAINABILITY

Lola Starr; designed with the environment and functionality in mind. We source only the highest quality recyclable materials for our premium activewear range. Our fabric of choice; ECONYL® Waste that is otherwise polluting the Earth, is transformed into ECONYL® regenerated nylon. It’s the same as brand new nylon and can be recycled, recreated and remoulded again and again. This means we can create new products and buy new products without having to use new resources. Style doesn’t need to be sacrificed in pursuit of sustainable fashion – and we’re doing just that. We are a proud British brand that champions our local textile industry, crafted by a talented team of skilled designers, pattern cutters, and seamstresses we can keep the carbon footprint to its lowest. All our printing is printed in Liverpool and orders are packaged in our recycled and recyclable packaging.

 

VERSATILITY

Trans-seasonal and multi-activity design concepts, as well as classic styling and colours, can contribute towards achieving product versatility, thus increasing longevity.

Our range of children’s tracksuits are made from sturdy materials with functionality in mind. Making garments that are worn for longer for multiple use is the single biggest action that can be taken to reduce the environmental impact of clothing. With the unique features on our designs makes this possible, sleeves on sleeves off, likewise with the joggers into shorts. Trend-free designs that won’t go out of style and stereotype free to be passed on to siblings.

Across our activewear range, all sports tops are double sided and fully reversible. We select colours and styles that look stylish year after year, and can be mixed-and-matched, no matter the season.

TENCEL Modal fibers offer textiles a long-lasting quality of exquisite softness.

CERTIFIED ORGANIC COTTON

Kind to the planet and your child’s skin. Organic fibres are natural fibres grown without the use of synthetic pesticides (such as insecticides), or herbicides and GMOs (Genetic Modified Organisms) according to the principles of organic agriculture. Organic agriculture is a production process that sustains the health of ecosystems, soils and people. Organic cotton is gentle and kinder to a baby’s skin. As the material is soft and free from chemicals, there is less of a chance of your child developing skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis and skin allergies. As organic cotton always keeps its natural state, it makes it mould resistant and antimicrobial too.
