🔒 Ethical Sourcing at Shirtshapers

At Shirtshapers, we believe in doing business the right way – with fairness, transparency, and care. Behind every T-shirt, hoodie, or cap we produce is a real person, and we’re committed to ensuring their safety, dignity, and wellbeing.

✅ Our Commitment

We work closely with our trusted partner factory in Vietnam, where we’ve built long-standing relationships based on mutual respect and shared values. Every Shirtshapers product is made under ethical conditions that prioritize:

  • Safe and clean working environments
  • Fair wages and reasonable working hours
  • Respect for human rights and freedom of association
  • Zero tolerance for child or forced labor

Our factories complete a self-assessment reviewing:

  • Working conditions
  • Health and safety practices
  • Employment contracts
  • Wage and hour compliance
  • Anti-discrimination policies
  • Grievance mechanisms
  • Environmental impact

🙋 Worker Welfare & Voice

We don’t just tick boxes. We actively invest in worker welfare, with support for:

  • Open communication channels
  • Anonymous feedback surveys
  • Support for female workers in leadership and training
  • Ongoing skills development and safe workplace education

If any issues are identified, we work with the factory to resolve them – not walk away. We believe in long-term partnerships, not one-off transactions.

👚 Supply Chain Transparency

We are mapping and monitoring our supply chain with increasing visibility into tier-two processes like printing and embroidery. We only work with approved, verified subcontractors who meet our ethical standards. Shirtshapers has a strict no-unauthorized-subcontracting policy to ensure transparency at every stage.

🚫 Modern Slavery & Child Labour

We have a zero-tolerance policy for any form of modern slavery, human trafficking, or child labor. All workers must be above legal working age and employed voluntarily.

💬 Continuous Improvement

We’re a growing business, and we know ethical sourcing is an ongoing journey. That’s why we’re committed to improving each year – through updated audits, closer factory visits, and stronger safeguards for workers. As we grow, so will our ability to raise the bar for responsible manufacturing.

🌿 Looking Ahead

We’re exploring more ways to integrate sustainability and ethical sourcing, from recycled materials to plastic-free packaging and carbon footprint reduction across our supply chain.

🤝 Ethical Business is Smart Business

By choosing Shirtshapers, you’re supporting a supply chain built on trust, respect, and integrity. We’re proud to make merch that not only looks good – but feels right too.
