Buy Fair. Be Fair.

Ethical responsibility has been a foundational principle of OBEY since the beginning. That’s why we’re proud to work with a number of Fair Trade Certified factories. Look for our hangtags that identify these products made in accordance with globally recognized Fair Trade standards. These items are easily identified by the Fair Trade Certified™ logo on their hang tags and online product listings.

What is Fair Trade?

Fair Trade is a market-driven model designed to empower workers and farmers, reduce poverty, and promote sustainable development. It ensures better labor conditions, environmental stewardship, and long-term community investment. For every OBEY Fair Trade Certified product sold, a percentage of the purchase price goes directly into a worker-controlled fund. These funds are then used to support the most pressing needs of their communities. This could be through it’s scholarships, transportation, healthcare, or emergency services.

By choosing Fair Trade, you’re making a conscious decision to support the individuals who craft and cultivate the products you wear. Your purchase helps build stronger, more resilient communities around the world.
