1. Why Are Your Prices So Much Higher? $98 for a Pair of Joggers?
"Our prices reflect the true cost of creating high-quality, sustainable, and ethical products. The raw materials we use, including eco-friendly fabrics, are more expensive but have a much lower environmental impact. Each piece is made to order, which avoids overproduction and waste but increases production costs. We also prioritize paying livable wages to the skilled artisans and workers we collaborate with worldwide. When you invest in our joggers, you’re supporting sustainability, ethical practices, and exceptional craftsmanship—not just buying clothing."
2. Why Are Your Prices So Much Higher? $225 for Sweatshirts from Your Gold Label Collection?
"The Gold Label Collection represents a true labor of love and attention to detail. Each piece is produced in small batches, allowing me to personally select the fabrics, design every element, and oversee the finishing touches, including labeling and packaging. This ensures the highest level of quality and exclusivity for each item."
"The collection uses premium materials and reflects my commitment to sustainability and artistry. As an American-based brand, I pay U.S. taxes and livable wages to contractors while maintaining ethical practices throughout production. The Gold Label Collection is more than just clothing; it’s a handcrafted, high-quality piece designed to stand out and last for years."
3. Are Your Designs AI-Generated?
"No, each design is the result of a truly meticulous creative process. Each piece involves 7 to 10+ layers of detail, from the main print to the sleeves and other accents. I’ve personally created nearly 2,000 designs for STL and over 5,000 pieces in the last 8 years—long before AI tools existed. Take a close look, and you’ll see the difference."
4. Your products are too expensive compared to similar items elsewhere.
"We understand your concern. Our pricing reflects the high-quality, eco-friendly materials we use and the care we put into crafting each piece. Every item is made to order, ensuring minimal waste and a low carbon footprint."
"Supporting a small business like ours means investing in unique, sustainable fashion that lasts—something you won’t find in mass production."
"Unlike similar colorful brands that require delicate care, our garments are designed for easy wear and easy care. They’re machine washable, saving you time and the costs associated with dry cleaning, while still offering vibrant, long-lasting designs."
5. Why does it take so long to receive my order?
"Since we operate on a made-to-order model, your item is custom-created just for you. This ensures less waste and supports a sustainable production process. While it takes a bit longer, the result is worth the wait!"
"We’re a small business dedicated to providing high-quality products, and we appreciate your patience as we craft something special for you."
6. The fabric for the eco-poly joggers or wide leg pants is not what I expected—too thick, not breathable, etc.
"We use high-quality athletic wear (similar to swimsuit material) eco-poly fabrics on many of our products that are durable and sustainable. While they may feel different from other materials, they are designed for longevity and versatility as well as being machine washable and quick to dry.
"Unlike many brands with delicate fabrics that require handwashing or dry cleaning, our garments are durable and machine washable, making them easy to care for. The fabric’s structure also ensures it retains its vibrant colors and quality after multiple washes, saving you time and money."
7. Why should I pay more for your product instead of a cheaper option?
"Each piece is a wearable work of art, designed with care and inspired by global aesthetics. Our products are not just clothing—they're a statement of individuality."
"We work with ethical suppliers who pay livable wages, and our U.S.-based contractors demand and are paid higher wages to ensure fair and sustainable labor practices."
"As an American-based brand, we are responsible for paying U.S. taxes, wages, and other operating costs, which reflect the true value of maintaining ethical and local business practices. Supporting us means supporting local jobs and contributing to a fairer economy."
"By choosing us, you support a small, minority-owned business focused on sustainability, creativity, and ethical production practices."
8. Your return policy seems too strict.
"Our return policy ensures that every item meets hygiene and quality standards for all our customers. Items must be free of scents, stains, and wear to maintain our commitment to quality."
"As a small business, returns not only cost us a full sale but also involve additional handling and disposal expenses. Returned garments are donated to those in need rather than resold, ensuring they are never reshaped or repackaged for someone else. This approach reflects our values but also means we absorb the loss. Additionally, a portion of every purchase supports charities dedicated to empowering women, nurturing children, and protecting the environment. We’re happy to work with you to find a solution that balances these commitments and ensures your satisfaction."
"Because of our small-batch production model, we do not have or use warehouses. This approach helps keep production costs down and avoids additional expenses, but it also means we cannot easily restock or repurpose returned items. Additionally, a portion of every purchase supports charities dedicated to empowering women, nurturing children, and protecting the environment. We’re happy to work with you to find a solution that balances these commitments and ensures your satisfaction."
9. Are Your Clothes Good for Busy Moms?
"Yes! Our clothes are designed for easy wear and care—they’re machine washable, and stains wipe off easily, even with just plain water. No more worrying about baby spit-up or other accidents as you head out to work or school. Perfect for moms who need both style and practicality in their wardrobe."
10. What makes your products stand out?
"Our products combine vibrant, one-of-a-kind artistry with sustainability, practicality, and easy care. Each piece is machine washable, saving time and dry-cleaning costs. We design wearable art that celebrates individuality while supporting charities that empower women, children, and protect the environment."
11. Why should I shop with you instead of bigger brands?
"Shopping with us means choosing more than fashion—you’re choosing impact. Our brand supports sustainable practices, features unique designs crafted by a Black artist, and gives back to charities that create positive change. With nearly 2,000 pieces of wearable art in STL alone, we offer individuality that big brands can’t match."
"Unlike bigger brands, our owner is available to personally address any and all questions about fabrics, sizing, and other details. You’re not just purchasing a product—you’re engaging directly with the artist and designer, ensuring a personalized and transparent experience."
12. What is Eco-Poly, and why is it valid as an eco-friendly material?
"Eco-Poly is a term used to describe polyester made from recycled plastic bottles. By incorporating Eco-Poly into many of our designs, we’re helping reduce waste and pollution while giving discarded materials a second life."
"This ‘use and reuse’ approach is a practical solution to addressing the environmental impact of traditional polyester, which relies on virgin plastics."
"Eco-Poly allows us to create durable, high-quality garments while contributing to the global effort to save the planet and protect the environment."
"In addition to using Eco-Poly, we actively support the environment through partnerships with organizations like Trees for the Future, which focuses on tree planting in Africa, Save the Rainforest, and Surfrider, dedicated to beach cleanups. By aligning with these causes, we extend our commitment to sustainability beyond our materials, contributing to conservation, reforestation, and the protection of our planet's natural resources. And, we encourage this support by allowing our customers to choose their charity of choice at checkout."
