The design studio, pattern room, cutting table, production line and packing line are all under one roof. LA Relaxed doesn't over produce or send garments to landfill. They source third-party certified, plant based fibers, like GOTS certified organic cotton and Lenzing. This means they are as safe for growers as they are for your skin. And they work with LA-based mills to salvage fabrics. Fabrics are dyed at local Bluesign certified dye houses that recycle water and use low impact, non-toxic dyes.
