Our Fair Trade Standards
Trading Fairly
WITH THE PRODUCERS & ARTISANS HAS ALWAYS BEEN
The Way We Work
Over the past 20 years Nomads has been bringing you clothing without compromise. This means we ensure that standards are met to comply with fair trade guidelines. Nomads have always held the policy of “trade not aid”, believing that this is the best way to help maintain a sustainable and profitable living for the producers and ourselves. Our love of Indian crafts and of maintaining these traditions is sewn into the very fabric of the clothing.
Villages such as Bagru are known for their wonderful block printing which you will find incorporated into several of our classic casuals for this season. Supporting handcraft artisans is another way that Nomads is able to promote traditional skills. Patchwork made from bed covers and hand appliqué work can be found in some of our casual jackets and coats. Fair trade also takes into consideration environmental issues. In the past 6 years Nomads have been working towards finding new ways to reduce the environmental impact our products have on the planet. Organic cotton is now more available to us and we are happy to increase this range yet again for the new collection. Farming organically means that no harmful chemicals are used and the land requires less water. Recycling our packaging and using biodegradable postbags are also helping to reduce the impact our business has on the environment.
