At 'We are kind' we believe it's really important that you know where your items are coming from and how they're being made.
All this information was put together in response to those of you who care about our supply chain. We are all students learning about this important topic that's going to make a positive impact to people, animals and the planet. Our goal is to keep growing along with you, ethically and responsibly, throughout this process.

Our manufacturing process
We are kind is committed to ethical and sustainable manufacturing, that's why we have carefully selected all of our partners and providers. This is neither the easiest nor the cheapest way to go for a business, but for us it is definitely the best way to do it.
We are also committed to conducting business in a socially responsible manner, where products are produced under lawful, humane and ethical conditions.
T-Shirt materials
Our recycled tees are made from recycled plastic, like water bottles, organic US-grown cotton for a soft, natural fabric, and Tencel™ Modal sourced from sustainable beech trees. They save an average of 145 gallons of water, reduce 4 kg of CO2 emissions and use an average of 6 water bottles.
All of our screen printing is done locally in Orlando, Florida. We have found our suppliers to be excellent partners and they are one of the best in the field. They also work with water-based inks only, meaning these inks do not contain any of the toxic chemicals found in plastisol.
Tote bags
Our different types of tote bags are made from either 6oz 100% organic cotton or 12oz recycled cotton. Please refer to the description of each specific product.
Stickers
Our stickers are made in the US with responsible papers and vegetable-based offset inks rather than the traditional, cheaper, petroleum base.
Pins
Our pins, including the butterfly clutch on the back, are made of metal (not recycled, unfortunately), and NOT of silicon or plastic like other options out there.
Fulfillment and shipping
Each and every order we receive is picked, packed and checked from our office in Orlando. We pay close attention to detail to make sure you get as excited when getting your products as we do when creating and packaging them.
100% of our packaging is environmentally friendly, meaning that it is made from recycled materials and that it can be easily recycled as well.
