Agolde has quickly become a fashion-girl favorite for premium denim with killer fits, and even better, the brand continues to evolve its sustainable efforts. A sister brand of Citizens of Humanity (a cult favorite!), both labels are manufactured in company-owned facilities (and have been since each of the brand's inceptions) to ensure maximum control over quality and to lessen environment impact.
Getting down to the nitty gritty, both Citizens of Humanity and Agolde implement high-efficiency dye and washing machines, which cut down on water, chemical, and power usage by over 50 percent; use high-efficiency dryers, which use 20 to 30 percent less gas than previous machines; have introduced laser technology, Ozone wash, and E-Flow processes, which cut down on water usage; and have implemented recycled materials during the stone wash process, which greatly reduces the number of stones used.
