Our ratings are based on a scale from 1 (We avoid) to 5 (Great) How we rate


Our “Planet” rating evaluates brands based on the environmental policies in their supply chains, from carbon emissions and wastewater to business models and product circularity. Unfortunately, Extreme Cashmere does not publish sufficient information. You have a right to know how the products you buy affect the issues you care about.

Workers’ rights are central to our “People” rating, which assess brands’ policies and practices on everything from child labour to living wages and gender equality. Here we rate Extreme Cashmere “Not Good Enough”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It doesn't disclose where its final production stage occurs.
  • There's no evidence it has a Code of Conduct.
  • There’s no evidence it ensures workers are paid living wages in its supply chain.
  • It audits its suppliers but does not state how often.

Brands’ animal welfare policies and, where applicable, how well they trace their animal-derived products are the focus of our “Animals” rating. Here we rate Extreme Cashmere “Good”. These are a few factors influencing its score:

  • It appears to use exotic animal hair.
  • It doesn’t appear to use leather, wool, down, fur, angora, or exotic animal skin.

Based on all publicly available information we’ve reviewed, we rate Extreme Cashmere “Not Good Enough” overall.
