The Ethletic shoes are crafted from Fairtrade FLO-certified, GOTS organic canvas twill cotton, from small farmers from India.

Ethletic products are made solely from resources of certified Fairtrade supply chains:

• Cotton - The organic cotton is certified Fairtrade and organic through Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). The cotton is grown by a Fairtrade small farmers cooperative in the city of Muzaffargarh in Pakistan’s Multan District – only a few hundred kilometers away from the Ethletic factory. The cotton is dyed using GOTS certified dyes.
• Rubber - Natural rubber is used for soles, toe caps and for the gluing process known as vulcanization. It is a renewable natural resource and eventually decomposes completely. Ethletic rubber comes from sustainably farmed plantations in Sri Lanka that are certified as sustainable from Forest Steward Council (FSC), requiring things such as continuous reforestation.
• Metals - At present, the eyelets come from an Ecotex source in China. The brand is in the process of creating a more sustainable alternative from natural materials.

With a strong commitment to their employees throughout the entire supply chain, Ethletic has created the “Talon Welfare Society”, through which one US Dollar per pair sold of the Ethletic sneaker goes to support worker’s wellbeing.

Factory employees receive a wage 20% higher than the legally stipulated minimum wage in Pakistan.

Ethletic's suppliers are certified to Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI), Fairtrade FLO, Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS).
