At David Zala, we are committed to reducing the excessive waste that ends up in landfills, where 37% of the world’s waste currently resides. This is a pressing environmental concern that continues to escalate.
We recognize the fashion industry’s significant role in this ongoing crisis. The rise of fast fashion has led to an increase in low-quality items designed for short-term use, contributing further to the problem. At David Zala, we prioritize lasting quality and sustainable menswear, aiming for our clothing to be a faithful companion for life.
To achieve this, we have meticulously examined our supply chain to align with the philosophy of Slow Fashion. Below, we outline our commitment to creating sustainable, timeless clothing designed to stand the test of time.
What does Slow Fashion mean? It means resisting the urge to chase fleeting trends. Instead, we focus on creating classic styles that endure over time. Our designs introduce layers and emphasize versatility, making timeless statements.
Every piece we produce is crafted by our hands or by local artisans, allowing us to maintain control over our supply chain and workforce. We prioritize quality over short-term profits, ensuring that every garment reflects our commitment to craftsmanship. You’ll discover exceptional value in every stitch.
This approach is part of our conscious decision to place the environment at the core of our business. We continuously review and refine our processes to minimize our impact and enhance sustainability.
We ship all our clothing in 100% recyclable boxes made from 70% recycled paper. Our shipments are sent via Canada Post, DHL, or FedEx—companies that share our commitment to sustainability through initiatives like Earth Smart and the UN Goals for Sustainable Development by 2030.
Thank you for supporting our values.
By ordering fabric individually, we minimize our stock levels and avoid the pitfalls of overstocking and wasted space.
Returns can often lead to unwanted inventory, but that’s not the case with our customers. As a conscious consumer, you invest in a tailored piece with the intention of keeping it for the long term. This thoughtful approach gives you a unique perspective on our clothing and significantly reduces returns, helping us maintain a lean inventory.
We take pride in sourcing fabric from mills that share our commitment to sustainability and integrate responsible practices into their processes.
